Add another one to the list. Unfortunately I can find nothing about J Harvey, but might be able to shed some light on the actual painting. I have been led to believe it is of The Bon Homme Richard captained by John Paul Jones battling against The Serapis captained by Captain Richard Pearson off Flamborough Head, East Yorkshire on 23 September, 1779.

Another two ships billed from US Civil War is just now selling at $100 on Goodwill's auction site. Value is probably above auction price there, but I have seen a few items go ridicuously overvalue. Art tends to undersell.

Just found this site while looking up J Harvey

I purchesed this picture from Mauritius in 1991
it`s 4 foot long and 2 foot high
Having seen all the other pictures i think
these were mass produced for touresium
and signed by the factory owner

Yet another, mine measures 8"x10" The ship sailing toward me has wind at its back but the ship sailing away does not.
There is rough seas but I only have two cannon ball splashes in my painting (one in front of the ship sailing tword me, on the right) and one splash behind the ship on the left (sailing away).
One other interesting observation is that while mine is signed in the lower right, it is in yellow paint.
Any help or new information would be great.
Thank you and good luck.

I also own a J. Harvey oil painting. Where I bought it from might give some people an idea where the painting come from. The size of my painting is 24"x36", I bought it for $25 at a Wal-Mart in San Diego. When I asked about it, the manager said the paintings either come in from Mexico or from China.

I am the grandson of the painter Herbert Johnson Harvey born 1884. He was a member of the Birmingham school and painted mainly portraits but could also turn his hand to repousee and engraving. If you are interested I have set up a website of my grand father's engravings- http://jharvey18.moonfruit.com/#
I am not aware that he painted sea battles/ seascapes. His father John Rabone Harvey was also a painter, and as far as I know, painted landscapes. Please don't hesitate to contact me if you would like any further information

Hello there JHarvey: I don't believe your Grandpa is the same artist the folks in this thread are referring to. I am very happy that you did chime in, your Gpa's art is wonderful. Thank you.

I believe that the art factories in China are taking names of real artists and pumping out crap.

Yet another "J. Harvey"
I recently passed an antique shop in south London and saw this painting in the window. As I recently moved and called my new house "Cannons" I purchased the picture. It measures 90 x60 cm and is in a quality frame, cost was £45.

Joining this thread it would appear there are many J Harvey's on the market.
Reading the thread it would appear many originate from China but seeing others they appear to have different aspects of ships in Battle. Mine shows two ships in battle with a light sky above . has any one else have the same?
Whatever I was pleased with my purchase and it looks great on my wall.

I bought an abstract painting of a woman called “Woman with a Hat” from a private collection by J. Harvey & it's H 81cm x W 61cm x D 3cm. It's very Picasso like.
