In 1902 watercolorist Samuel Peter Rolt Triscott (1846-1925) moved permanently to Monhegan, becoming the first artist to live there year-round. He gradually severed his ties with the cosmopolitan art world in favor of life on a rugged island ten miles out to sea. A biographical essay on Triscott forms the core of this book, with 50 paintings shown in full color. More than 60 black and white photographs of Monhegan, printed from Triscott's glass plates are also featured.Malone, Richard is the author of 'Rediscovering S. P. Rolt Triscott Monhegan Island Artist and Photographer', published 2002 under ISBN 9780884482406 and ISBN 0884482405.
