Wallis, Alfred (1855–1942)| English naive painter. Having spent much of his life as a sailor, he started painting when he was 70 and living in St Ives in Cornwall, southwest England. Often using household or ship paints and scraps of cardboard, he painted ships and harbours with a childlike simplicity of form and composition. Voyage to Labrador (about 1935; Tate Gallery, London) is typical. |
