The Hydes' England Trip, June, 2007

St. Ives

St. Ives is a former mining town with a picturesque fishing harbor on the west coast of Cornwall. It has attracted artists since the 1880s when Whistler and Sickert followed the footsteps of Turner. The town has been adopted by many generations of artists keen to paint seascapes out of doors.

We walk down hill to the harbor but later we ride the bus back up to the parking lot.

The edge of the harbor is bustling with people walking and visiting shops.
People can be seen sunning themselves on the beach in the distance.
