This is a guide through the fashions of the last 100 years of British painting spiced with details of the artists. It relates the problems faced by the modern marine artist - why he finds no inspiration in modern ships - and explains why representational art has remained supreme in the face of Cubism, Futurism, Impressionism and Pop Art. The book includes some 70 colour plates. This limited edition includes a forward by Adam Stacy-Marks on the centenary of E.Stacy-Marks Ltd.
