A very nice quality pair of marine paintings by Thomas Rose Miles (English 1869-1910). He is best known for producing dramatic marine scenes, often located on the North East coast of England. His works successfully capture the human struggle against the overwhelming power of the sea. Works frequently include rescue boats and boats in difficulty, and are seen battling the elements of sea and weather. Typical titles include Launch of the Life Boat , Storm Driven off Scarborough, and Fishing Boat in Distress. Miles found popularity among persons of coastal living, since it was their bravery and strife that he was inspired by. Such powerful imagery did not go unnoticed.

Miles is represented by public collections located in Bristol, East Ayrshire, the Isle of Man, the Isle of White, and Sunderland, among others.
