Charles Napier Hemy (1841-1917) was regarded as one of the finest marine painters of his generation. He was born in Newcastle upon Tyne, and trained in the Government School of Design in Newcastle, followed by the Antwerp Academy and the studio of Baron Leys. Upon his return to England, he lived in London for a time before moving to the Cornish town of Falmouth in 1881. He was elected an Associate of the Royal Academy in 1898 and an Academician in 1910. He was also honoured as an Associate of the Royal Society of Painters in Water Colours in 1890, and became a full member in 1897. John Singer Sargent painted a portrait of Hemy whilst staying at his Falmouth home in 1905.
