This authentic, hand-painted, original Oil Painting dates from the Mid 20th Century and depicts a lively scene of sailing ships on a choppy sea. Visible brushwork and a textured paint surface bring the ships' sails and the rolling water to life. The composition shows several vessels clustered together with layered strokes that emphasize movement and age. This one-of-a-kind work is a charming example for collectors seeking a vintage maritime picture with palpable surface character. Mid 20th Century. The painting measures 37 × 32 cm (14.6 × 12.6 inches) (framed, if shown) and weighs: 1.1 kg (2.4 lbs). If you see a frame in the pictures, it comes with the artwork :)
