Elizabeth A. Stanhope Forbes, an influential figure in the Newlyn School of artists, created "Study For 'Blackberry Gatherers'" as a preparatory work for her larger, more renowned painting. The Newlyn School, based in the fishing village of Newlyn in Cornwall, England, was known for its naturalistic and plein air approach, capturing the everyday lives of local people with a keen eye for detail and authenticity. Forbes, alongside her husband Stanhope Forbes, was a central figure in this movement, contributing significantly to its development and prominence.

"Study For 'Blackberry Gatherers'" exemplifies Forbes' dedication to capturing the essence of rural life and the innocence of childhood. The study likely served as a preliminary exploration of composition, light, and form, allowing Forbes to experiment with the arrangement of figures and the interplay of natural light before committing to the final piece. This practice was common among artists of the Newlyn School, who often created numerous sketches and studies en plein air to ensure the accuracy and vitality of their larger works.

The subject matter of blackberry gathering is reflective of the Newlyn School's focus on the simplicity and beauty of rural activities. Forbes' attention to detail and her ability to convey the textures and colors of the natural environment are evident in this study. The work captures a moment of quiet industry and communal activity, highlighting the connection between the people and their landscape.

Forbes' contribution to the arts extends beyond her paintings; she was also a dedicated teacher and mentor, influencing a generation of artists through her work and her role in the founding of the Newlyn Art School. "Study For 'Blackberry Gatherers'" not only represents her technical skill and artistic vision but also her commitment to depicting the honest, unembellished beauty of everyday life.
