Charles Napier Hemy RA, RWS, (1841 -1917).
Mixed media on paper, oil, watercolour and tempera. Signed and dated 1896.
Hemy studied at Newcastle School of Art and subsequently started church decoration in Newcastle and Lyons.
He first exhibited in London in 1863, painting coastal and marine subjects which reflected a strong Pre-Raphaelite influence. His attention to detail was much admired, especially his depiction of rocks.
This oil painting, painted in 1896, is a very good example of his work. Hemy settled in Falmouth and spent a lot of time sailing and painting from his boat. He had a very good knowledge of the sea and painted the fisherfolk and their crafts with great skill.
