EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph, Nanette Newman takes a moment of respite from filming the role of esteemed Victorian artist Elizabeth Adela Stanhope Forbes (nee Armstrong) in the Television South West (TSW) production, "A Breath of Fresh Air." Set against the picturesque backdrop of Cornwall's rugged coastline near Land's End, Newman embodies the spirit of the Newlyn School artist, known for her captivating portrayals of the Cornish landscape and its people. Dressed in period costume, Newman sits on the lush, green grass, her expression thoughtful and serene. The late 19th-century attire, complete with a high-necked blouse, long skirt, and bonnet, further immerses her in her character. The verdant surroundings, with their vibrant foliage and rolling hills, provide a striking contrast to the artist's somber wardrobe, highlighting the beauty and contrasts of both the setting and the character. As Elizabeth Adela Stanhope Forbes, Newman brings to life the story of a talented artist who found inspiration in the Cornish landscape and its people. Forbes' work, which captured the essence of the region, became a cornerstone of the Newlyn School art movement. In this role, Newman delves deep into the character's passion for art, her connection to the land, and the challenges she faced as a woman in a male-dominated world. With her unwavering commitment to her craft and her ability to transport viewers to another time and place, Newman's performance as Elizabeth Adela Stanhope Forbes promises to be a captivating and moving portrayal of an extraordinary artist and the world she inhabited.
