Notes:

Apparently the younger son of John F. and brother of John, he produced a number of portraits of sailing vessels in a very smooth style and paid attention to every of the ship´s technical details. Quite often the vessel is depicted at sunny weather with the Belgian or Channel Coast in the background. Information about the artist and his oeuvre can also be found in our book "Ship Portrait Artists". |
