About the Art On a quiet evening, HMS Surprise lies at anchor in Grand Harbour, Malta, a Marine standing guard on deck. A cutter pulls away from the dock, the officers in the stern softly lit by a lantern. In the background on the right can be seen a British 74-gun warship and a Genoese barque is being towed across the harbour. A haunting image for Patrick O'Brian's 9th Aubrey/Maturin book. Geoff Hunt studied graphic design and worked in advertising before going free-lance in 1972. Amongst other work, he was Art Editor of the Warship journal until 1979, but he is best known for his series of book covers for Patrick O'Brian's Captain Aubrey adventures. In 1979 he sold his house and went sailing for a year in the Mediterranean. An article detailing his voyage was featured in the British Yachting Press. Since his return, he has devoted himself to his lifelong passion of marine painting. His work is now represented in the permanent collections of the Royal Navy Museum, Royal Navy Submarine Museum and in private collections worldwide. He exhibits regularly with the RSMA and galleries in Knightsbridge, London, Lymington, Hampshire, and New York.
