He produced marine scenes almost exclusively, mostly small-scale, which show the influence of 17th-century Dutch seascapes and French plein-air painting. Nevertheless he developed a style of his own, frequently discarding academicism in favour of Impressionism, and created atmosphere by the predominant use of blues, greens, yellows and greys. Most of his works are in Athens (e.flowers oil paintings for sale.g. Sailing Ship at Spetses, 1877; Athens, N.G.famous oil paintings for sale.).Port-of-Copenhagen Boat at Spetses Sea Battle at the Bay of Patrae
