A late 19th-century maritime watercolor on paper depicting a dynamic coastal scene. The composition features a gaff-rigged sailing vessel in the foreground, identifiable by the sail number N 12, cutting through choppy blue-green waves. The background contains a larger three-masted square-rigged ship and other smaller vessels silhouetted against a pale, atmospheric sky. The artist has employed a traditional representational style, with fine attention to the vessel’s rigging and the play of light across the water’s surface. The work is signed ain the lower right corner. The painting is presented behind glass within a deep gold-finished mount and a broad, gilt-moulded frame with a beaded inner edge.
