Excellent watercolour depicting the harbour at Mevagissey by well known Cornwall artist S.J. Beer. He was a painter in watercolour of coastal scenes and landscapes who was born in Paignton, Devon, the son of a carver and gilder. he moved to Cornwall in 1906 and set up a studio in Falmouth. He ran a small gallery here until around 1940 when he moved to Carharrack near Redruth. S.J.Beer`s work has become very collectable in recent years, especially in the West Country.
