Sinking of "Lord Clive" at Colonia del Sacramento, January 6, 1763. (7 Years War). First British attemp in the conquest of the Río de la Plata (River Plate) with the support of the Portuguese, interested in recovering the "Colonia" West of the Uruguay River. The British-Portuguese fleet, made up of 3 vessels fails as they were being frequently attacked by the successful defense of Governor Ceballos. The Lord Clive mistakenly anchors too close to the port's batteries and is efficiently set on fire with fire balls. Commander MacNamara dies in combat while the rest of his officers were hanged for piracy. This is the only British defeat in this war and ends the commercial endeavours of the East Indies Company in the area. The company was responsible for financing this mission to monopolize its South American operations.

"Painting the sea and sky provides me with the perfect excuse to express myself in my love of color and bold strokes. The abstract aspect of my paintings enables me to experiment and get lost in the imagery it evokes, while allowing the viewer to interpret the work through their own feelings and emotions. There is nothing shy about the sea nor in my work!", says the artist. Having honed his craft for more than 30 years, Vivo's body of work encompasses various themes, from realistic and semi-abstract landscapes, seascapes and beaches, to abstract human forms and shapes. His preferred technique is oil on canvas or board using palette knives and brushes, with bold strokes and colors. For many years, he held the position of Director of The Painters & Sculptors Association of Uruguay. Vivo currently heads his own atelier, located in Montevideo, where he teaches art and exhibits his paintings. His work is included in private and corporate collections worldwide. He has been awarded several prizes at art contests for paintings, drawings and installations. He has illustrated books and book covers.
