Due to popular demand, the Harris Museum & Art Gallery presents an exhibition of local town scenes, landscapes and seascapes by the Preston-based artist Edwin Beattie (1845 - 1917). Although the works are usually taken as a representation of old Preston, Beattie often altered reality for the sake of composition. Despite this, the works give Preston an 'olde-worlde' charm and allow a glimpse of buildings long gone.
