During the war, and as a Flight Lieutenant in the RAF, Winston was seconded to the Admiralty in London to illustrate ship recognition books for use aboard warships and in the air for identifying enemy vessels.

There are many volumes of these filled with drawings by Winston taken from photographs shot by agents in the Philippine Islands, Hong Kong, Burma, Malaya, Siam, the Pescadores, the Netherlands East Indies, New Guinea and the Solomon Islands.

After the war he exhibited widely often in company with other major marine artists including Montague Dawson, Frank Mason, Charles Pears and Norman Wilkinson.

The embossing from Warwick Gallery and the designation as an artist proof add to its uniqueness and potential value. Artist proofs are typically limited in number and are often considered more valuable by collectors
