Simone family of Naples and to the Maltese Nicholas Cammillieri and, latterly, to Luigi Maria Galea. These, and many other lesser-known artists, carried out works rooted fi rmly in the Roux tradition. The 1840s and 1850s witnessed the peak of demand and infl uence. As the industrial revolution advanced, traditional craft began to disappear. The increasing effi ciency of the steamship meant that the naval sailing vessel became virtually extinct and the wooden hull obsolete. The fi nal upheaval came with the start of the American Civil War and with an inevitable, adverse, effect on seaborne trade. As clippers came to dominate parts of transoceanic trade, which gave rise to a new school of marine artists, the Roux family traditions faded away. However, for any who wished to glimpse, and have insight into, the trading traditions of the Mediterranean, its busy harbours and ports, the Roux family will supply the keys. CY
