Focusing on the first quarter of the 19th century, Coasting explores and compares images of the coast on the English and French sides of the Channel, looking in particular at the work of RP Bonington and JMW Turner. Through the works on display and the essays in the accompanying book the exhibition will examine such themes as smuggling and piracy, fishing and fish markets, industrialisation and leisure.
