A lively and authoritative introduction to the history of art in Cornwall, from Turner to the present day. Themes include: Cornwall in the Romantic vision of landscape; the Victorian development of 'mythical' Cornwall as a tourist destination; the search for rustic authenticity and the early art colonies in Newlyn and St Ives; Cornwall's attraction for modern artists, and the different visions of landscape in modern art after the Second World War - a visual legacy continuing into the present day.
