In September 1857 he was in Normandy painting watercolours for Queen Victoria. Thereafter, he painted extensively for the queen and gave lessons to her children; the styles of father and son are often confused.

Laiguelia - Coastal Beach Village on Italian Riviera Large Watercolor Painting
Located in Sevenoaks, GB
A quite wonderful signed and dated 1959 large scale watercolour depicting the Riviera town of Laigueglia in Northern Italy. This is a lively scene with sailor in a striped t-shirt bringing in his ropes, as a sun bather in swimming trunks chats with a figure holding a large pole, possibly a sand spike or fishing rod. Locals go about their business in the background and mamas hang their washing from balconies to dry.
The quality of this modernist work is superb throughout with fine detail and excellent rendering of the numerous figures and boats. Inscribed, signed and dated lower left.
