Description: | A sketch of the sea from the 'Penaglis M. Hadoulis'. The artist has concentrated on the rhythmic appearance of waves on a calm sea. In particular he has observed the appearance of waves breaking and forming crests. The surface of the water is broken with undulations of darker blue paint to indicate the waves where they emerge as peaks, darker on the underside and white on the breaking crests. Everett sailed in the Greek-owned steamer, 'Penaglis M. Hadoulis', from Cardiff, Wales, to Montevideo, Uruguay, and back between December 1931 and March 1932. The painting is inscribed 'PMH' verso.
NMM ink stamp on verso.
