To celebrate 25 years since its major refurbishm­ent, the Penlee House Gallery has taken a fresh look at its collection, which has expanded significan­tly over these years. Jewels in the Crown showcases some of the earliest works from the collection as well as more recent additions. Primarily known for its unsurpasse­d collection of Newlyn School paintings, works by Frank Bramley, Laura Knight and Elizabeth Forbes will feature but there will also be lesser-known items as well, such as The Gibson photograph­ic collection, which was purchased in 2016.
