If it's originals that you are after please go to our sister site www.maritimeoriginals.com

Welcome to Maritime Prints where you will find for sale OVER 230 images - originals and reproductions - of the nautical scene of the period 1805 - 2005

You will not have seen most of these pictures before as the vast majority of the originals are from private collections and have been amassed by me from a variety of sources. They are mostly concentrated around the ships of the Royal, Commonwealth & Dominion Navies that strutted their stuff in the early to mid 20th century and are painted by artists who quite clearly know their subject to perfection.

Because originals are not within wallet's reach of everyone and are of necessity unique, impeccable reproductions of many of them are also available from me, some in limited editions as small as 6 copies only. The majority are made to order by a specialist in London and are on canvas or heavy paper (depending on the original's medium) and most of these fine art prints can be tailored in size to clients' specifications: they are not only available at original size which with today's houses are often too big! Collected by museums, serious students of naval history, private buyers, they are not, in any sense, mass produced and you are asked to contact Maritime Prints (see "contact/order" box at head of this home page) to discuss, by telephone or email, your particular and specific requirements. I am emphatically not a "add to my shopping basket" business!
