Marine Artist
Marine art or maritime art is a form of figurative art (that is, painting, drawing, printmaking and sculpture) that portrays or draws its main inspiration from the sea. Maritime painting is a genre that depicts ships and the sea—a genre particularly strong from the 17th to 19th centuries. In practice the term often covers art showing shipping on rivers and estuaries, beach scenes and all art showing boats, without any rigid distinction – for practical reasons subjects that can be drawn or painted from dry land in fact feature strongly in the genre."Grove": Cordingley, D., ''Marine art'' in Grove Art Online.

École De Nancy
École de Nancy, or the Nancy School, was a group of Art Nouveau artisans and designers working in Nancy, France between 1890 and 1914. Major figures included the furniture designer Louis Majorelle, ebonist and glass artist Jacques Grüber, the glass and furniture designer Émile Gallé, and the crystal manufactory of Daum.

The goal of the group was to produce in series ordinary objects, such as furniture, glassware, and pottery, with fine craftsmanship and in original forms, making art objects available for people's homes. History The Nancy School emerged from dramatic events in the history of Lorraine, which had become a province of France in 1776. After the French defeat in the Franco-Prussian War in 1870, neighboring Alsace and a large part of Lorraine were ceded to the German Empire, but Nancy remained inside France.

Nancy School
The Nancy School was a French hypnosis-centered school of psychotherapy. The origins of the thoughts were brought about by Ambroise-Auguste Liébeault in 1866, in Nancy, France. Through his publications and therapy sessions he was able to gain the attention/support from Hippolyte Bernheim: another Nancy Doctor that further evolved Liébeault's thoughts and practices to form what is known as the Nancy School. It is referred to as the Nancy School to distinguish it from the antagonistic "The Salpêtrière School of Hypnosis, Paris School" that was centred on the hysteria-centred hypnotic research of Jean-Martin Charcot at the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital, Salpêtrière Hospital in Paris.
