This painting depicts several boats on a slightly agitated sea. Two steamships are positioned near the horizon as well as a large schooner and a smaller sailing boat with fishermen in the foreground. The sky is full of clouds - it seems a storm is coming.

The varnished work is illegibly signed at the lower left. The surface is slightly soiled, the edges show some color flaking where the frame has rubbed. Under UV-light some touch-ups are visible, so in the area of the bow of the sailing boat. The very decorative frame shows some signs of age and wear. The framed dimensions are 59 x 76 cm, while the panel itself measures 30 x 47 cm. (nlu)

Shipping costs excl. statutory VAT and plus 2,5% (+VAT) shipping insurance.
