Abbey-Slip by Stanhope Forbes

Painted in 1921, Inner Harbour – Abbey Slip depicts an iconic view of Penzance known and loved throughout the country through its use on greetings cards and prints.  The success of the fundraising campaign, together with the NHMF and V&A/MLA grants means this important item of Cornish heritage will now be available for everyone to enjoy at Penlee House Gallery & Museum, where it will be displayed less than half a mile from where it was painted.
