Ralph,
My husband thinks it might be by Turner, he says that it's his style and
subject matter.

Hi Sandy,

It's

IVAN Constantinovich AIVAZOVSKY - (or Ayvazovsky)

One of the greatest seascape painters of his time, Aivazovsky conveyed the movement of the waves, the transparent water, the dialogue between sea and sky with virtuoso skill and tangible verisimilitude. The artist also often turned to themes from Armenian and Russian history.
Born in the Crimea (Russia), he graduated from the St. Petersburg Academy of Arts with honours at 20 years of age. He was sent to study in Italy and returned a recognised master. Delacroix spoke of him with great respect and Turner described him as a genius. Always true to his motto, "For me, to live means to work," Aivazovski created around 6,000 paintings. His house in his native town was turned into a museum dedicated to his memory even during his lifetime.

The originality of Aivazovsky's work is largely determined by his national character and temperament. Armenian culture has an ancient tradition of the creative value of light, and the knowledge of light was one of the most important elements in his art, giving the artist's canvases a dreamy and emotional feel.

I've learned something today <VBG>
