John Stobart Art

British, 1929-2023
John Stobart was a British maritime artist known for his paintings of American harbor scenes during the Golden Age of Sail. His fascination with the sea stemmed from childhood visits to his grandmother in Liverpool where he observed the city's busy docks. After graduation, he travelled to Africa with his father and made sketches of the 12 ports he visited there, inspiring him to pursue maritime art as a specialty. Stobart emigrated to Canada in 1957 where his paintings sold well to the various shipping companies on the St. Lawrence River. In 1965 he made his first visit to the U.S. and was offered a show at the Kennedy Galleries. Later, he established the Stobart Foundation to encourage traditional artists through scholarships. He moved in 2015 to Fort Lauderdale, Florida which is where he died in 2023 at the age of 93.

Cleveland. Moonlight Arrival on the Cuyahoga ca. 1876
By John Stobart
Located in Mount Vernon, NY
Signed limited edition print after painting by John Stobart (b.1929). Born and raised in England, John Stobart emigrated to the United States in the 1960's and became interested in America's maritime history. His first exhibition of marine paintings in New York was an immediate sellout. Since then he has dedicated his work to capturing the great port scenes during the golden age of American commerce. Based on hours of thorough research and on-site drawings, and enhanced with lighting to create a sense of season and time of day, his paintings vividly recreate what it must have been like to stroll the cobblestones along a busy wharf at dawn or under the glow of moonlight. Maritime Heritage Prints was established in 1976 by Stobart to ensure control of the highest quality production of his prints.

Balmoral by His Majesty King Charles III (formerly known as HRH Prince Charles, The Prince of Wales) - Hand Signed Limited Edition Lithograph. Belgravia Gallery has been honoured to be associated with the artworks of HRH The Prince of Wales for over 25 years. Anna Hunter, gallery owner, wrote a handwritten letter to the Prince asking him if he would consider making signed lithographs from his beautiful watercolours which could be sold in aid of his charities. The gallery subsequently worked with the Prince for over 10 years publishing some 18 different editions and raising over £4million for the Prince’s Charitable Foundation. Lithographs were made from the Prince’s original watercolours under the guidance of Stanley Jones – a celebrated printmaker who had previously worked with Henry Moore for 30 years, and with Elizabeth Frink, David Hockney and others. Each one is hand-signed. “…One thing I have discovered in the course of my painting efforts is that Balmoral Castle...
