Listed British Artist John Ambrose (1931-2010) oil painting on canvas, seascape

This majestic seascape painting by Ambrose captures a full-rigged sailing ship gracefully gliding across a deep blue ocean under a wide, pastel-toned sky. The vessel, with its towering masts and billowing white sails, commands attention as it slices through dynamic, rolling waves. 

The artist masterfully balances movement and serenity, illustrating the ship's forward momentum against the vast, open sea. Soft sunlight dances on the water's surface and illuminates the clouds, enhancing the painting’s atmospheric depth.

Framed in a nautical-inspired rope-accented frame, this work exudes timeless maritime elegance and reflects Ambrose’s skill in marine artistry.

Framed measuring 41" x 29" & painting measures 36" x 24" . 
Frame  and painting are in good condition.

John Ambrose (1931–2010) was a British painter celebrated for his impressionistic marine and coastal scenes, as well as landscapes. Born in Brierley Hill, Staffordshire, he pursued his art education in the West Midlands, drawing significant influence from D.A. Chatterton of Plymouth. His frequent visits to Cornwall led him to settle in St. Ives, where he lived and worked for over 30 years. Ambrose was elected a member of the Royal Society of Marine Artists (RSMA) in 1990, having exhibited with them since 1985, and also showcased his work at the Royal Institute of Oil Painters (ROI) in 1989. His artworks have been featured in exhibitions across the UK and Germany, earning him a strong reputation among collectors.
