"Ship And Lighthouse" is a notable painting by Alfred Wallis, an English artist renowned for his distinctive and primitive style. Wallis, who was born in 1855 and died in 1942, began painting late in life, around the age of 70, after the death of his wife. His works are celebrated for their raw, untrained quality and their evocative depiction of maritime life, which was deeply influenced by his own experiences as a fisherman and marine scrap merchant.

"Ship And Lighthouse" exemplifies Wallis's unique approach to art, characterized by a lack of formal perspective and a direct, almost childlike representation of his subjects. Painted on found materials such as cardboard and old paper, Wallis's works often feature bold, flat areas of color and simplified forms. This particular painting captures a scene that was familiar and significant to Wallis: the interaction between ships and lighthouses, which were vital to the safety and navigation of seafarers.

The composition of "Ship And Lighthouse" typically includes a ship, rendered in Wallis's signature style with exaggerated proportions and a sense of movement, juxtaposed against a lighthouse, which stands as a beacon of safety and guidance. The sea, often depicted with rhythmic, wave-like patterns, adds a dynamic element to the scene. Wallis's use of a limited color palette, often dominated by blues, whites, and earthy tones, enhances the stark and poignant atmosphere of his maritime subjects.

Wallis's work, including "Ship And Lighthouse," gained recognition posthumously, largely due to the efforts of artists and collectors associated with the St Ives School, such as Ben Nicholson and Christopher Wood, who discovered Wallis's paintings in the 1920s. Today, Wallis is celebrated as a significant figure in British folk art, and his works are held in high esteem for their authenticity, emotional depth, and unique artistic vision.
