Spring, Zennor Head

Heather carpeted moorland appear in the foreground of this painting along with Pendour Cove and Porthglaze Cove, but the dramatic granite cliffs which rise 200 feet above the sea at Zennor Head are the focal point. During his stay in Zennor in 1916, D.H. Lawrence wrote ‘Women in Love’ and would have walked this coastal path with his wife Frieda.
