About the Item
Philippe Tanneur (Marseille, 1795 - 1878)
Marina in storm
Oil on canvas, 54 x 68 cm
Framed, 63 x 77 cm
Signed lower right and dated 1866
The son of an artilleryman, Philippe Tanneur was born in Marseille in 1795. His life was absolutely adventurous: in his youth he was a cabin boy and roamed the seas on the dreaded privateers' boats. Following a major injury, however, he decided to radically change his lifestyle, opening a small painting studio at the port area of Marseille. Although self-taught, the artist quickly made a name for himself and participated in some of France's most celebrated national exhibitions beginning in the mid-1920s: Tanneur exhibited his works at the Paris Salon of 1827 and later at the Salon of 1829, achieving great public and critical acclaim. It was on the latter occasion that Tanneur's pictorial output catalyzed the attention and interest of King Charles X, who sent the artist along with crown troops to Algiers so that he could paint the landing and highlights of the battles between the French army and Algerian soldiers. His great talent earned him the protection of other prominent figures on the political scene of the time, those of Louis Philippe or Tsar Nicholas I, but his very difficult character caused him to lose one after another. During a voyage to America with his family, his ship, the steamer Humbolt, sankDecember 18, 1855 near the resort of Halifax; the passengers were almost all saved, and the artist painted a canvas depicting this tragic event. From then on, the theme of shipwreck or the stormy navy enters powerfully into his visual imagery, as also appears evidenced by this beautiful painting, within which tragic personal experiences meet with the Romantic ideal of depicting a splendid but fatal nature for man.

"Shipping Off the Coast" by Thomas Luny
By Thomas Luny
Located in Wiscasset, ME

Thomas Luny (1759–1837), born in Cornwall, probably at St Ewe, was an English artist and painter, mostly of seascapes and other marine-based works. At the age of eleven, Luny left Cornwall to live in London. There he became the apprentice of Francis Holman, a marine painter who would have a great and long lasting artistic influence on Luny: Luny remained until 1780 in Holman's London studio, which, was first situated in Broad Street, St. George's, and later relocated to Old Gravel Lane.
Examples of his work are exhibited at the National Maritime Museum at Greenwich, in the Royal Albert Memorial Museum in Exeter, and at The Mariners' Museum in Newport...
