McTague of Harrogate has dated this piece to the 1900s.
A family holiday to Whitby in 1896 seems to have influenced Bagshawe who moved there permantently in 1901. He was a founding member of the Staithes Group and a keen yachtsman and his paintings of sea and ships are said to be the most accurate and realistic of the Staithes group artists. Bagshawe exhibited widely including at the Royal Academy, the Royal Society of British Artists (elected a member in 1904), the Royal Institute of Painters in Oils, Manchester Art Gallery, the Walker Gallery, Liverpool, and the Staithes Art Club.
The present painting "At Staithes" is an oil on canvas measuring 14"x 21". It is signed lower right and is framed giving an overall size of 20"x 27".
