Description: CORNISH PRIMITIVE: ALFRED WALLIS - Edmund Mullins (1994, Hardcover) From the flyleaf: "Alfred Wallis, a semi-literate Cornish rag-and-bone man, began to paint at the age of seventy after his wife's death. 'for company' as he put it. Seventeen years later, in 1942, he died in a workhouse near Penzance. By then his achievements had been recognized by a mere handful of painters and writers involved in the St. Ives artistic scene, and but for their patronage next to none of his pictures would have survived. Wallis's work is exceptional. completely self-taught and painting from 'memory', his canvases portray the simplife of the then small fishing village of St. Ives, the sea, the sky, boats, lighthouses -- these were fundamentals of his life. ..."
