These are the Signed unique original Watercolour paintings by John Worsley.A gorgeous watercolour work by Worsley showing Wee Willie Winkie on deck of a schooner having spotted a whale. Painted in vibrant blues and with characteristic light-heartedness, Worsley really appears to have enjoyed painting this piece.
Please note- this piece is accompanied by two smaller panels free of charge, also painted by Worsley for this adventure. The first depicts a penguin catching food and the second shows the Emperor penguins looking after their eggs.
Worsley, who spent time in a P.O.W. camp after being captured in Yugoslavia during World War II, achieves a fantastic liberation from the past by painting in such a fluid joyful manner.
Worsley's work can be found in The Imperial War Museum, The Maritime Museum, The collection of HM The Queen, The Savage club and many other private collections including those of Royal Families, banks and Colleges.
