Unknown
European or American School Oil Painting; Boat on European Coast

c. 1860

About the Item

This captivating seascape painting showing two boats: one kidnapping a woman and her slave and the other, more distant is most likely from a European or American school. Although the artist is unknown, it is from the mid to late 19th century and depicts a European rocky coast. It shows the frantic escape for a kidnapping on a smaller boat off the coast at sunset. The almost fiery sunset and the gloomy grey clouds in the sky seems to signify the dramatic event happening in the painting. Comes without Frame!
