Compass Models Art Collection × Gregory Smith
Exclusive original maritime art
Aus unserer Kundschaft kam in den vergangenen Jahren immer wieder der Wunsch auf, neben unseren detailgetreuen Modellen noch weitere maritime Unikate anzubieten. Inspiriert von diesem Feedback haben wir uns auf die Suche nach einem außergewöhnlich talentierten und renommierten Künstler gemacht – und sind bei Gregory Smith fündig geworden. Gemeinsam mit dem britischen Marinekünstler erweitern wir unser Portfolio um die exklusive Compass Models Art Collection. Seine Gemälde, die sowohl historische als auch moderne Motive umfassen, sind international in privaten Sammlungen gefragt. So erwarben jüngst sogar namhafte Hochseesegler wie Tracy Edwards und Marco Trombetti seine Meisterwerke.
Traditional craftsmanship & attention to detail
Gregory Smith works exclusively with traditional oil techniques. His art is based on intensive archival research: From original historical plans and ship logs to contemporary photographs, this thorough preparatory work ensures that every painting is technically absolutely detailed and authentic. His precise working method has already received several awards in the art world, including the RSMA New Generation Award, the ArtMarine Prize, the The Pioneer Award and the The Bonham Trophy.
Exclusive Commissions & Unique Pieces
His works have been prominently exhibited on many occasions, including at the annual exhibitions of the Royal Society of Marine Artists (RSMA) in London and the Southampton International Boat Show. The paintings are created in various formats – from smaller collectibles to large-format statement pieces. In addition to his independent works, we also offer exclusive, customised commissions. Upon request, the motif, perspective and lighting can be precisely tailored to your future environment and your personal wishes.
