I am reading an MA in History of Art at the University of Malta and my thesis is entitled 'The sea in 19th century painting in Malta'.

I am viewing 19th century maritime paintings and religious works of the period that include the sea as part of the composition. I recently extended my interest to portraiture and am currently searching for 19th-century portraits that feature the sea as part of the background.

I would be very grateful should anyone owning such paintings contact me on 9943 3388 or kimar@live.com (all correspondence will be treated in the strictest confidence).
