As well as being today's finest painter of the fighting sail of the 18th and 19th centuries he is a world-renowned expert on the ship construction and naval history of the period, thanks to the minutely-detailed research he undertakes for each of his paintings. Geoff has special interest and expertise in the ships and career of Nelson.\n\u003cbr\u003eGeoff Hunt's book, published recently and available from Marine Artists.co.uk, shows that his range is far wider than the Nelson era, encompassing 20th century shipping and plein air river landscapes. Geoff is President of Britain's Royal Society of Marine Artists and a member of the Wapping Group, who take their subjects from the River Thames. \n\u003cbr\u003e \n\u003cbr\u003eCommissioning Geoff Hunt\n\u003cbr\u003eYou may commission your own oil painting from Geoff Hunt through Marine Artists.co.uk\n\u003cbr\u003ee-mail Charles Mayes on cm@marineartists.co.uk for full details of how to proceed or use the CONTACT US form above.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"22435","title":"Geoff Hunt Book \"Geoff Hunt - Historical Marine Paintings\"","description":"\u003cp\u003eWith over 80 illustrations ofoil paintings, water colours and drawings, this lovely book and catalogue isthe firstto offer a full survey of Geoff Hunt’s career.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSubjects include major paintings of HMS \u003ci style=\"mso-bidi-font-style:normal\"\u003eVictory\u003c\/i\u003e with HMS \u003ci style=\"mso-bidi-font-style:normal\"\u003eSurprise\u003c\/i\u003e, the battles of Copenhagen and St. Vincent, Jack Aubrey’s \u003ci style=\"mso-bidi-font-style:normal\"\u003eSophie\u003c\/i\u003e and USS \u003ci style=\"mso-bidi-font-style:normal\"\u003ePresident\u003c\/i\u003e with HMS \u003ci style=\"mso-bidi-font-style:normal\"\u003eEndymion\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are sections on Patrick O’Brian and HMS \u003ci style=\"mso-bidi-font-style:normal\"\u003eSurprise\u003c\/i\u003e, Nelson and his times, America and book illustrations. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt includes the catalogue of Hunt's major exhibition (the only solo one of his career) in Duke Street, St. James's, London in March 2017.
