"Ships And Lighthouse, Houses" is a notable painting by Alfred Wallis, an English fisherman turned artist who became a significant figure in the British art scene during the early 20th century. Wallis, who was born in 1855 in Devonport, Plymouth, is best known for his naive style of painting, which he began pursuing seriously after the death of his wife in 1922. His works are characterized by their simplicity, directness, and the use of household materials such as cardboard and ship paint.

"Ships And Lighthouse, Houses" exemplifies Wallis's unique approach to art, which was largely self-taught and driven by his personal experiences at sea. The painting captures a maritime scene, a recurring theme in Wallis's oeuvre, reflecting his deep connection to the sea and his life as a fisherman and mariner. The composition typically features ships, a lighthouse, and houses, rendered in a straightforward, almost childlike manner that eschews conventional perspective and proportion. This lack of formal training resulted in a distinctive style that has been described as both primitive and modern.

Wallis's work gained recognition when he was discovered by artists Ben Nicholson and Christopher Wood in 1928. They were captivated by his raw, unpretentious style and introduced his work to the broader art community, leading to Wallis being associated with the St Ives School of artists. Despite his late start and relatively short career, Wallis's paintings have had a lasting impact on the development of modern British art.

"Ships And Lighthouse, Houses" is a testament to Wallis's ability to convey the essence of his subjects with minimal means, capturing the rugged beauty and simplicity of coastal life. His work continues to be celebrated for its authenticity and emotional resonance, offering a unique window into the world of a man who painted not for fame or fortune, but out of a genuine love for the sea and his surroundings.
