Mr Richard Eurich, the Hampshire artist - he lives in Dibden Purlieu - has been exhibiting at the Redfern Galleries, Bond-street, W. Two of his sea subjects are here reproduced. That of the first arrival of the "Queen Mary' at Southampton, is 40 ins. by 20 ins., and is brilliant in colour and the confident precision of its detail."

- Hampshire Advertiser & Southampton Times, November 1936.
