Garman Morris

Morris flourished between about 1900 - 1930 mainly painting seascapes.

He is known to have exhibited watercolours in Exeter in 1906 & 1907 and some of his works were made into prints. C. W. Faulkner also published some of his coastal scenes as postcards.

The Dictionary of Neglected Artists (1880 - 1950) suggests that he also painted under the name G. M. Avondale.

The painting is in fair condition. There is some foxing. It has been re-framed.
