The port of Newton, Glamorgan

DEVIS, Anthony
We’re working on releasing this image.

Two men are using a wooden box trap to catch rabbits in the sand dunes near the once flourishing port of Newton, Glamorganshire. Born at Preston, the step-brother of the portraitist Arthur Devis, the artist worked as a topographical painter, primarily in watercolour.

We have a duty of care to all our audiences. This website draws on legacy collections data. We recognise that some of this information may be outdated or discriminatory and we're currently working to review our records. If you have any questions or comments on an artwork, please contact us.
