 Burlington Paintings - Samuel John Lamorna Birch RA RWS RWA
At this time there was an artist named Lionel Birch living in Newlyn and at the suggestion of Stanhope Forbes, Samuel John Birch took the additional name of Lamorna in order to distinguish himself.
A great deal of his work was carried out in Cornwall, but he did not confine himself to this area as he was a keen fisherman and he made frequent visits to Scotland, Wales, the North West of England and the West Country to indulge his twin passions of painting and fishing.
This magnificent painting dates from 1935/6 when Lamorna Birch was at the peak of his career, having just been elected a member of The Royal Academy in 1934.

What Samuel Birch (and others) had discovered was that the inscriptions were NOT hieroglyphic but written in a semi-hieractic (linear) hieroglyphic characters (script) which was a form of shorthand that, strangely enough, did not appear until the beginning of the Middle Kingdom (2000 BC).
And, as Birch explains, the presence of the Pharaoh's name "as a quarry mark in the Great Pyramid is an additional embarrassment."
