Stephen Penn
Stephen Penn is a Baroque artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Stephen Penn painted the Isle of Man in the early 1700s, letting watercolor do the walking across sky, shore, and stone. In 1733 he lifted the view from Peelnears and laid it down as The North East Prospect of the Country up Thurston Water from Peelnears—every ripple and rock outlined in cobalt and ochre. He recorded not just scenery but the exact angle of light where the Manx coast meets the Irish Sea. Tap the 1733 watercolor to stand inside his brushstrokes and watch the tide come in.
