The Adelaide on a stormy sea. 
 
 
As one would expect from the quality of his maritime works, Montague Dawson (1895-1973) lived a life intimately connected to the sea. The grandson of Henry Dawson, a marine painter in his own right, and the son of an engineer and yachtsman, a fascination with the nautical was clearly in his blood.
