Phil May

With the naked eye
The Omnibus Boat on a calm day
Faust

Phil May is an Impressionism artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Phil May sketched everyday life in ink and watercolor, often catching people in motion—like the riders on *The Omnibus Boat on a calm day* or the quiet scene in *With the naked eye*. Though his exact years are unknown, his prints from the late 1800s feel fresh, full of sharp lines and quick gestures. See how he turns a simple boat ride into something you can almost feel. Tap *Faust* to watch his pen dance across the page.
