'A Three-Masted Frigate off Capri', 19th Century Seascape, Royal Naval Museum
By Carl Frederik Sørensen
Located in Santa Cruz, CA
A serene marine painting from the artist’s late period showing both his unerring compositional sense and his mastery of light and perspective.
Inscribed lower right, "Carl Sorensen" for Carl Frederick Sorensen (Danish, 1818-1879) and dated 1863.
