This work is in a silver frame and is glazed.
For historic reasons upon this 200th anniversary year, I have selected two works which were created shortly after being elected an Academician of the RSA.
They depict lesser know sea port towns on either side of the North Sea
Köpervik on the Stavangerfjord, Norway and Gardenstown ( Gamrie) on the Moray Firth, Scotland.
One features asphalt, the other concrete, but they both imply the proximity to the Sea.
