Henry Scott Tuke (12 June 1858–13 March 1929), British painter, is best remembered for his paintings of naked boys, which have earned him the status of a pioneer of gay male culture.
Tuke was born in York into a prominent family of Friends (Quakers).
Tuke formed close friendships with many of his models, but it has never been established that he was sexually involved with any of them, on either a romantic or commercial basis.

He was also an industrious painter of male nudes, usually naked boys posed on sunlit beaches, and his many pictures and sketches of this type caused alarm at Victorian exhibitions.

"A book to linger over and trasure" -- Capital Gay, London Like his close American contemporary Thomas Eakins, Tuke's naturalist paintings of naked young men were inspired by classical ideals of perfection, by the Impressionist and plein air painters, and by the poetic influence of Walt Whitman.
Tuke returned from London to settle in his native Cornwall, where the idyllic coastline is the setting for much of his work.
Largely forgotten after his death, in a Freudian age when the sexuality of his paintings could not be ignored, Tuke has been now rediscovered and enjoyed by a new generation.

Dated March 1882, this oil on canvas by Henry Scott Tuke (1858 - 1929) combines all those elements that brought the artist to eminence as a 'plein-air', figure and marine painter.
His later reputation revolved around his contribution to the controversial history of the nude in Victorian art, in particular the naked youth, the complete antithesis of this work.
Tuke had entered the Slade aged just 16, later studying in France and Italy, this latter period being responsible for his fascination with light, colour and the human form.

The idea behind the project is to present some of the best work from contemporary artists alongside a number of newly restored Henry Scott Tuke paintings, most of which may never have been exhibited before.
And in particular, they represent the fruits of all the inspiration and confidence that flowed from Henry Scott Tuke and his fellow members of the so-called Newlyn School to the long lasting benefit of artists from generations to come.
Here comes the sun is the title chosen for this exhibition, since much of Tuke’s work and that of the contemporary artists was or has been inspired by the sun and quality of light that blesses these and other parts of the world.
