About the piece
Dating to approximately 1840, this work by a Welsh Primitive artist captures a scene of local industry against a dramatic coastal backdrop. The composition is dominated by the striking, dark silhouettes of the slate-like cliffs, which provide a powerful frame for the figures gathering shellfish and the calm sea dotted with sailing vessels in the distance.
