Polperro has a rich history of high-quality art, produced by both visiting and resident artists since the nineteenth century. The Heritage Art Trail presents some examples within the context of where they were created. The Polperro Arts Foundation has posted eleven small signs like the example shown here, each placed where an artist set up his or her easel many years ago. Visitors can point the camera of their smart phone or tablet computer at the QR code and an internet link will pop up on their screen. Tapping on the link will reveal a painting which can be compared with the modern view.
