Description
English: Sennen Cove

A lively sketch showing the effects of waves breaking over the shore on the Cornish coast. Everett has applied thick impasto paint to show the white crests of the waves. The sea is depicted a deep green and contrasts with the sky which is ranged in horizontal stripes from pink, through orange to yellow and mauve. The artist was concerned to create a sequential series of these paintings to capture the effect of waves breaking. Following the end of World War I, Everett travelled to Helston in Cornwall on 28 January 1919. He then moved to Porthleven before renting a studio at Sennen Cove, selecting it for its good view of the sea. He stayed there until 11 May 1919. See also BHC0028.

Licensing edit

This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1949, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
