Victorian Marine Oil Painting Sunset with Shipping and Row Boats off the Coast

19th century

About the Item

Victorian Marine Oil Painting of Sunset Scene with Shipping and Row Boats returning to Shore at the end of the day. A beautiful small framed Oil on Panel that is framed in a handmade traditional gold frame by Adolphus Knell, one of the famous Knell Family of Maritime Painters. Adolphus Knell is rightly famous for his gorgeous depictions of busy shipping scenes, often at Dawn or Dusk, his Ships are well observed and the Fishermen and Sailors he depicts are well drawn and believable. Knell was painting in the latter half of the Nineteenth Century and though prolific he remains highly collectible as the quality of his work is always excellent. His father William Adolphus Knell and his brother Callcott Knell were also talented painters who exclusively painted Marine Scenes.

Victorian Marine Seascape Large Oil Painting of Pure Seas and Shimmering Light
Located in ludlow, GB
Victorian Marine Seascape Large Oil Painting of Pure Seas and Shimmering Light by the absolute Master of Pure Seas Paintings. This is a beautiful, ethereal work by Henry Moore (THE Henry Moore and not the famous Sculptor!). The seascape we have for sale is an exquisite example of Moore’s sea-painting (he began painting the sea in the late 1860s), this, produced at the height of his fame and talents, it was painted in 1891. In it he captures the rolling waves as they catch the light and conveys a cool beauty within this deceptively simple composition. There may be a hint of a vessel in the background but maybe it is a trick of the light!! The seagulls dance in the foreground. Moore manages to straddle two enormous art...

"Being There" Original Oil Painting by Robert White, Frameless Display
Located in Encino, CA
“Being There,” an original oil on canvas by Robert K. White, is a piece for the true collector. White’s careful attention to detail and vivid use of browns and reds project from the painting, immediately capturing the viewer's attention and highlighting the artist's keen ability to capture emotion and life - all in a brushstroke. White's talent for depicting light and shadow provides the foundation for him to deliver subjects and scenes to the viewer's eye. This masterful work would make a great addition to an art collection and enhance most any home, perfect for those who have an affinity for cityscapes, theater, and architecture. In the artist’s own words, “I don’t paint what is inside of me; I paint what I see outside of me. I’m an observer. If I see something and I feel an affinity for it, something just clicks in my head. I’ll make the decision right then and there to paint that particular subject during that particular moment. It’s a perfect moment. Once something has caught my eye and I’ve heard the “perfect” click, it’s like a photograph has been taken in my mind’s eye. I only have a few days of clarity with that image. I have to start the painting quickly or else it will be gone and I will lose that image forever.” Artist: ROBERT KENNETH WHITE...
