Painting Emigration

We do not have to be an art critic to instinctively feel the painter has a complete understanding of the nucleus of the moment.

Paintings like ‘Emigration Plymouth’ have an existence beyond time as normally perceived.

Yet, ‘Emigration Plymouth’ has an existence very much of our real world.

‘Emigration Plymouth’ will continue to communicate to generations way beyond our own.

So very many famous voyages, so many lives reborn, at the time, Plymouth had the best organised emigration depot in Britain.

In the wake of the Mayflower, under a Harvest Moon, the famous clipper, ‘Samuel Plimsol‘ is preparing to make sail at Plymouth, Devon, England.

This fine painting as yet never exhibited in Plymouth shows you a lost history and yet one Plymouth and Plymouthians should celebrate, be proud of.

The painting theme

Emigration at one of the most historic pieces of water in Britain, The Cattewater, Plymouth, England.

We have here Mount Batten, Jennycliff and Plymouth Sound with a harvest moon over a famous ship the Aberdeen built ship rigged clipper, ‘Samuel Plimsoll‘.

I painted Emigration Plymouth for several reasons.

Emigration Plymouth is a part of Plymouth and migration history that people today can be inspired by and proud of.

Emigration Plymouth is a reminder to people who forget or are unaware that migration is not a one way traffic.

The real issue is, does the host land benefit from migration, in who’s opinion, if so how, where is the proof ?

Emigration and the Plymouth Depot

At last this lost Plymouth history is now documented by this painting.

At least as far back as the famous ‘Mayflower’ voyage (1620), Plymouth citizens played a central role in ‘exporting’ migrants.

In other ports migrants were often robbed.

Plymouth’s citizens were notably kind, generous and helpful.

They created the best migrant depot in Britain.
Tens of thousands of migrants passed through Plymouth particularly during the 18 th and 19 th century.

Any competent gallery will be delighted to offer this painting at this price.
