R. S. A. (1916 - 1991) HMS Belfast Passing under Tower Bridge Watercolour 35 x 50 cm Signed lower right Born in 1916, Sydney Vale was a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts and a member of the prestigious Wapping Group of Artists from 1972 to 1991, which was formed primarily to record life in London's Docklands. Within this group, Vale and his contemporaries specialised in portraying the charm and romance of the River Thames from source to estuary. HMS Belfast was transferred to the Pool of London in 1971, though it is not known whether Vale was there to record the event.
