473972 Studies of Boat Fittings (b/c & w/c on paper) by Hemy, Charles Napier (1841-1917); 68.7x46.8 cm; Laing Art Gallery, Newcastle-upon-Tyne, UK; (add.info.: In this sheet of studies Charles Hemy has focused closely on some of the fittings of a boat. Studies such as these would be extremely useful as reference material when he was painting his larger works for exhibition. The boat fittings have been drawn with both elegance and precision. Hemy had a great nautical knowledge and concern for detail. His studies provide a great deal of information about working boats in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. ); 穢 Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums; English, out of copyright.
