William Lionel Wyllie: Newbiggin Bay, Exhibited at the Royal Academy, 1893

William Lionel Wyllie: Newbiggin Bay, Exhibited at the Royal Academy, 1893. This oil painting on canvas shows the broad sweep of Newbiggin Bay in Northumberland with fishermen preparing to launch two open cobles. In the foreground one man is salting fish in a barrel alongside several large cod, crabs, baskets, a float with a marker flag and a launching dolly. Behind him two crews are pushing their craft into the waves while a woman paddles back to shore with a fish basket on each hip, watched by a small dog. There are numerous other boats at anchor and under sail in the background. Signed and with a label on the gilt frame stating ‘W. L. Wyllie (1851-1931) Newbiggin Bay (Exhibited Royal Academy 1893)’.
