Description

Ships and Seascapes gives an introduction to maritime prints, drawings and watercolours with a sweeping historical survey of the development of marine art. The book also focuses on the greatest marine artists and printmakers from earliest times to the present day, thanks to the expertise of David Cordingly, a former Head of Painting at the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich.
