Artist
George Webster
George Webster is a British Romanticism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
George Webster painted ships and coastlines in watercolor, mostly from the early 1800s. In A Vessel in the Surf off the African Coast, you’ll see a small boat fighting waves near shore, all in delicate blue-grey washes. The scene feels quiet yet urgent, like a moment frozen before the action.
Tap the painting to zoom in and watch the way Webster layered salt and water to suggest the churning sea.
