In the Directory of Warwickshire - Birmingham for 1830 there is the following entry : Fortescue and Banks, Wine and spirit merchants & dealers, 17 Worcester-st. & Edgbaston-st. from Newlyn Forum Feb 28th 2005 This is in reply to your enquiry about a painting by William Banks Fortescue (c1855 - 1924) who was painting in Newlyn and the surrounding area from about 1885. In November of that year he was lodging with a Mrs Maddern at Bellevue Terrace here in Newlyn, at that time Stanhope Forbes was also living there. You do not say how much you know about the artist, he was an engineering designer in Birmingham before deciding to become an artist and then studied in Paris and later (possibly in 1883 or 1884) in Venice before coming to Newlyn, in the mid 1890s he moved to St. Ives where he remained for the rest of his life. In 1979 there was an exhibition of paintings by Newlyn School artists at the gallery here in Newlyn and I think that the painting by Fortescue which is reproduced in the exhibition catalogue may be the one you are looking for. It shows an elderly woman, in traditional fishwives costume and with a basket of fish on her back, walking along the shore with a small boy, there are rwo other women in the background and in the distance some fishing boats. Fishwives were favourite subjects for the Newlyn artists and he may have painted them more than once. In this picture (probably inspired by Stanhope Forbes famous painting 'Fish Sale') the small boy is carrying a model boat and is wearing a hat, his feet are bare. It was painted in the late 1880s and in the 1979 exhibition the painting was on loan to Newlyn from an Art Gallery in Southport, Merseyside. I have spoken to the gallery and they still have the painting, in fact it is on show at the moment. I am sending you separately the picture scanned in from the 1979 catalogue. This is not a good copy as my scanner does not cope easily with thick books, but it should be good enough for you to see if this is the picture you are looking for...I assume that you already have a copy? Fortescue regularly exhibited in Southport and I think that he may have been born there. From a report in 2005 "The picture is called the Fish Fag (I don't know where the title comes from?) and the gallery which owns it is the Atkinson Art Gallery, Lord Street, Southport, Merseyside, PR8 1DH and the telephone number is 01704 533133. The gallery is open Monday to Saturday from 10 am to 5 pm except that on Thursdays and Saturdays they close at 1pm. I have spoken to the Penlee Art Gallery here in Penzance and they have two paintings by Fortescue - The Forge and Newlyn Harbour. They are having an exhibition at Penlee in June of paintings by Newlyn School artists and will be borrowing the painting from the Atkinson Gallery for that exhibition"
