"Boat At Sea" is a notable painting by Alfred Wallis, an English artist who gained recognition for his distinctive and primitive style. Wallis, born in 1855 in Devonport, Plymouth, was a fisherman and marine scrap merchant before he began painting in his seventies. His works are celebrated for their raw, untrained quality and their evocative portrayal of maritime life, reflecting his intimate knowledge of the sea and ships.

"Boat At Sea" exemplifies Wallis's unique approach to art, characterized by a lack of formal perspective and a direct, almost childlike simplicity. The painting typically features a boat, often depicted in a stylized and somewhat abstract manner, navigating the open sea. Wallis's use of color is striking, with bold, flat areas of paint that convey the vastness and movement of the ocean. His palette often includes deep blues and greens for the water, contrasted with the earthy tones of the boat and the occasional splash of white for waves or sails.

Wallis's technique involved painting on found materials, such as pieces of cardboard or old timber, which adds a textured, tactile quality to his works. This choice of medium reflects his resourcefulness and connection to his environment, as well as his outsider status in the art world. Despite his lack of formal training, Wallis's paintings possess a compelling authenticity and emotional resonance, capturing the essence of the maritime experience.

"Boat At Sea" and other works by Wallis gained attention in the 1920s and 1930s, largely due to the interest of prominent artists and collectors associated with the St Ives School, such as Ben Nicholson and Christopher Wood. They recognized Wallis's originality and the sincerity of his vision, helping to bring his work to a wider audience. Today, Alfred Wallis is regarded as an important figure in British folk art, and his paintings are held in high esteem by both art historians and collectors.
