The Santa Barbara Maritime Museum is delighted to announce that Arthur Beaumont: Art of the Sea--an exhibit of 53 paintings chronicling the accomplishments of the US Navy, from the USS Constitution to atomic bomb tests and expeditions to the North and South Poles—will be at the Museum for just six months, the last show on the West Coast before it leaves for the East Coast. Beaumont used Impressionist techniques in painting the stunning images in this exhibit and in capturing the majesty of the oceans and the vessels that sail them.

The Santa Barbara Maritime Museum is delighted to announce that Geoffrey Campbell Beaumont will offer a fascinating presentation about his father Arthur Beaumont’s life and work as the US Navy’s official “Artist of the Fleet.” Beaumont will share personal stories of the various paintings and provide viewers with his unique insight into this incomparable exhibit, the art and the artist.
