Tuke was a prolific artist-over 1,300 works are listed and more are still being discovered. Today he is remembered mainly for his oil paintings of young men, but in addition to his achievements as a figurative painter, he was an established maritime artist and produced as many portraits of sailing ships as he did human figures. In his will he left generous amounts of money to some of the men who, as boys, had been his models. Towards the end of his life Tuke knew that his work was no longer fashionable. Tuke suffered a heart attack in 1928 and died in March, 1929.

Tuke became an established artist and was elected to full membership of the Royal Academy in 1914. In 1885, Tuke returned to Falmouth where many of his major works were produced. In it he reported on his observations of the Moon, Jupiter and the Milky Way.
His book, Sidereus nuncius or The Starry Messenger was first published in 1610 and made him famous. He received several lucrative commissions there, after exhibiting his work at the Royal Academy of Art in London. Galileo Galilei did not invent the telescope but was the first to use it systematically to observe celestial objects and record his discoveries. While studying in France, Tuke decided to move to Newlyn Cornwall where many of his Slade and Parisian friends had already formed the Newlyn School of painters. From 1881 to 1883 he was in Paris where he met Jules Bastien-Lepage, who encouraged him to paint en plein air. Initially his father paid for his tuition but in 1877 Tuke won a scholarship, which allowed him to continue his training at the Slade and in Italy in 1880. In 1875, Tuke enrolled in the Slade School of Art under Alphonse Legros and Sir Edward Poynter. In 1870, Tuke joined his brother William at Irwin Sharps's Quaker school in Weston-super-Mare, and remained there until he was sixteen. Tuke was encouraged to draw and paint from an early age and some of his earliest drawings-from when he was four or five years old-were published in 1895.
Tuke's sister and biographer, Maria Tuke Sainsbury (1861–1947), was born there. In 1859 the family moved to Falmouth, where Daniel Tuke, a physician, established a practice.
