Herbert Barnard John Everett (1928). Everett produced hundreds of similar seascapes done on the spot, sometimes painted in quick succession from the deck of the 'Suzanne' a Danish training ship.

Jacques Truphemus was born in 1922 in France and is still actively painting today. He will perhaps be known as one of the great French artists of the 20th century. His influences, which are perhaps obvious in his work, were Japanese artists and such painters as Bonnard.
