The chalk Quarry - Garstin, Norman (British painter, 1847-1926) (My University, 1995)
Limerick born, Norman Garstin trained at the Academie Royale in Antwerp and then in the atelier of Carolus-Duran in Paris in the early 1880s. He travelled throughout Europe but seems to have enjoyed Brittany in particular.
