Just as news of the Coronavirus pandemic broke and we needed something to cheer us up, the Museum was very generously given this striking framed painting by Erica Suttill of Trevaunance Cove and the cliffs stretching towards Perranporth. The donor’s father had bought it from the artist. The Museum already has two portraits by her, so to add a rarer landscape is very pleasing.
There was an article on Erica Suttill, part of a series on St Agnes artists, in the most recent Journal, No 23.
