Edouard-Marie Adam (1847-1929), a French painter who lived a big part of his life in Le Havre (he moved there with his English wife in 1873), specialized in painting ships.
Adam became famous and was asked by many merchant marine companies and the French Navy to make paintings of their ships. Since most of his paintings were about ships, we are showing only a very few of them.
You can read more about him, in French only, on Wikipedia, click here to read Adam’s bio.
We found only one city in Normandy where he painted his ships:
- Le Havre (including Sainte-Adresse)
