About the Artist: Geoff Hunt brings to life a typical ship's company for a fifth-rate at about the maximum establishment of 200. The captain and the three lieutenants (naval and marine) are the only commissioned officers. The principal warrant officers were the master, purser, surgeon, boatswain, gunner, carpenter and the cook; of whom the master, purser and surgeon were regarded as gentlemen, and together with the lieutenants formed the company of the wardroom.
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.
