St Ives
Cornish artists' colony
St Ives is a name shared by several places in England, most notably a picturesque coastal town in Cornwall known for its beaches, art galleries, and light that has attracted painters since the late 19th century.
The name also belongs to a market town in Cambridgeshire.
St Ives appears in the traditional riddle-rhyme "As I was going to St Ives, I met a man with seven wives," which poses a trick question about counting travelers.
