Farmers of a Cornish peninsula are the stars of a photography exhibition.

Documentary photographers Colin Robins and Oliver Udy have taken more than 20 portraits of families that farm The Lizard.

The exhibition, Anthology of Rural Life – Farmers of The Lizard, aims to illustrate the relationship between farmers and the land they live on.

The exhibition opens at Kestle Barton, a working farm above the Helford River, on 15 June.

The photographs of The Lizard’s farmers are interspersed with portraits of people living rurally across Europe.

Accompanying the exhibition are a series of free talks on food systems, farming and land use on 20-21 July.

After the show ends in September, the photographs would be archived at Kresen Kernow, Cornwall’s archive centre, as a social and historical document, organisers said.

The exhibition and talks have been produced in collaboration with the Falmouth Art Gallery and The Museum of Cornish Life, Helston.
