By the 1850s watercolours of the south coast priced at between 15 and 50, were providing a steady income for Martin, whose charges were 'regulated by the amount of work rather than their size' (letter to J. Fairey, 25 Feb, 1853). Another view of Eastbourne was sold in these Rooms on 16th June, 1970, lot 144, and a view, dated 1842, is in the Towner Art Gallery, Eastbourne
