Original artwork description
Original oil painting by Alan Harris,
Acrylic on panel 20" x 16" inches, 50x40 cm.
Transport yourself to the rugged beauty of the pass with this stunning Old Tin Mine Painting. Tin was being worked in Cornwall and Devon up to 4000 years ago, and by medieval times, along with lead and wool, it was one of England’s main exports.
The last working tin mine, South Crofty in Camborne, closed in 1998 due to plummeting tin prices. But Cornwall's mining relics have gained fresh life as visitor attractions and monuments to the tight-knit communities that grew around them.
This work shows the image of an abandoned Cornish tin mine, tucked away in an idyllic location on a Cornish landscape..
This is another lovely piece of art to remember Cornwall's history.
