This is an original oil on board painting by the British artist Edward Matthew Elliott. It shows St. Ives harbor in Cornwall at low tide. In the background we see the buff stone houses of the old coastal community; in the mid-ground we see a dozen or so small wooden fishing vessels, grounded on the harbor sands, and in the centre we see three figures, possibly children, who appear to be searching for bait or shells in the wet sands. The distinctive and iconic Smeaton’s Pier, with its three arches, and the old lighthouse is clearly visible along the horizon. The old lighthouse used to stand at the end of the pier. However, in the 1890s Smeaton’s Pier was lengthened by another 300ft and a second slimmer lighthouse was built. The older lighthouse was then discontinued in use. The fact that this painting shows the old lighthouse with the pier extending beyond it suggests that it was painted after the new development, although it is interesting that the artist chose not to capture the new lighthouse as well in this composition. The sky above is pale blue with some low cloud. This is a delightful piece, reminiscent of lazy days spent along this glorious stretch of Cornish coastline.
