Highly detailed view of the ship in choppy water, a bright and breezy day, sailing boats in the distance.
Oil on fine woven canvas or linen laid onto board, good bright and clean, glazed and framed.
Some slight bubbles between the canvas and board, light surface dirty smudges, otherwise all in excellent condition, no restoration or repair.
The contemporary glazed plaster gilt frame with some losses, old worm holes to the back, still good and sound, would restore well.
Visible image 22'' x 17.5'' or 551mm x 440mm
