Artwork to be sold in London next week
Three paintings of coastal scenes around the Isle of Man will be auctioned in London next week.
One depicting an early view of Douglas Bay, painted by Joseph Heard in the 1840s, is estimated to fetch more than £15,000.
The other two paintings are by William Edward Webb and are thought to show Peel.
All three will go under the hammer at Bonhams in Knightsbridge on 27 April.
Alistair Lair is head of maritime pictures and says Heard's work is unique:
