The Fisherman and the Syren

Causing a stir. A depiction of the Fisherman and the Syren by Frederick Leighton (1856-58) on a gable end next to a unisex hairdressers in Brixham. A contemporary critic once called this painting‘irresistible seductiveness’. Commissioned by community group Brixham Future and lottery funded. Fabulous. Let’s have more.
