Seascapes

The Sea is an enduring subject for artists, giving them the challenge to capture the- on the one hand- the fury and power of a storm, or- on the other- the romance of the moon dancing across the waves on a still night. The unpredictability and dynamism of the sea has resulted in some of the most stunning artwork of all time. British artists seem to feel a particular affinity with seascapes, celebrating our island heritage.
