Lougher from Penclawdd
MORRIS, Sir Cedric (1889 - 1982)
Media: oil on canvas
Size: 60 x 73 cm
Acquired: 2008; assistance from the Derek Williams Trust
Accession Number: NMW A 29356
The semi-rural fringes of Swansea in the foreground of the painting contrast starkly with the chimneys and smoke of industrial Wales in the background. It is a generalised depiction of the Llanelli shoreline from Penclawdd. Loughor, in the title, is in fact not visible in the painting. Cedric Morris was born in Sketty, Swansea, and would have known the surrounding landscape well.

Machynys was an industrial area. Lougher is further up the estuary. What a pity Cedris Morris is no longer around to confirm or deny.
