Description

Watercolour heightened with bodycolour, scratching out and gum arabic
15.2 by 22 cm, 6 by 8 ¾ in.

Bentley specialised in marine scenes, often with extensive use of scratching out. This watercolour which dates from the 1830s shows the influence of Bonington’s marine scenes of the mid 1820s. Bentley was apprenticed to the engraver Theodore Fielding (1781-1851) until 1827. Fielding produced places for Bonington’s work which Bentley would have had access to.
