Having carried out a search re the name, there has been several sales of "Hohing" paintings of ships, but no one has commented re the owner of the signature.

Thanks for that! I couldn't find anything at all...

Best regards,

Have you got any links, Malky?

I've done searches and the only Hohing that is coming up is a Ken Hohing, Prof of Art at Rutgers University, USA and Tom Hohing, a printmaker.  Ken is primarily a photographer. Neither seem to paint ship scenes  :-\

No older artists named Hohing are coming up.

I've tried to enlarge the image to check the signature but none on the one that I've found.
