A great example of a non-nautical scene by Alfred Wallis is this one he sold to art critic Herbert Read, telling him he was proud of it as he found it "very difficult to shape a horse".

Here Alfred Wallis has painted a striped donkey, and wrote "Their was a donkey Sold By aucton fetched 2000 pounds ad stripes like one duren The war i saw very Scarce To see one with stripes.”

This was likely to have been a zebra–donkey cross - a very rare hybrid known as a zenkey, zonkey or zedonk.

Alfred Wallis was said to paint the rigging of his ships in incredible detail. I didn’t fully appreciate this until I sat with his painting of a 'simple' topsail schooner and began labelling every part I could see. The schooner is thought to be the Belle Aventure, which Wallis sailed on in 1876.
