Such a small amount for such an iconic Newly painting! Please support if you can
For many years, Walter Langley’s Cornish Fisherfolk has been on long-term loan to us. Now, this treasured painting is due to be sold, but we’ve been given an opportunity to acquire it by private treaty before it goes to auction.

We're into the last week of Emery Walker House's little women art workers exhibition and the house itself closes for the winter next weekend. It's not open that often and you have to go on a guided tour but it's a beautiful Arts and Crafts interior - well worth a visit. www.emerywalker.org.uk
