Painting bought on an Elder Dempster Ship


We sailed on the Aureol from Nigeria in 1970. My parents bought a wonderful oil palette painting of a Nigerian market from one of the ships’ officers who they said was the chief wireless officer.

 

I was only 6 at the time but we still have the painting. I can’t make out the name on the signature but was wondering if anyone know his name. I would love to know if he made a career from his painting or whether it’s possible to see any other of his works?

 

Thank you.
