專家說明
A close contemporary of Charles Brooking, whose work he sometimes copied, Francis Swaine was also influenced by the work of his father-in-law, Peter Monamy, which is clearly in evidence in these two highly detailed calms. Swaine exhibited regularly at both the Free Society and the Society of Artists from 1761 until his death, and seven works were exhibited posthumously at the Free Society in 1783.
