Moody, along with fellow artists from the Kingston Group used to
travel to coastal areas, on both sides of the Channel to paint. 

The extraordinary series which resulted from his 1926 painting spree
were especially concerned with light – huge skies, seascapes, white
cliffs and rolling sand dunes. 

We are grateful to Richard Thompson for the above catalogue note.
