About the Item
William Pierce Stubbs’ The Three-Masted Schooner Samuel H. Hawes is a striking maritime portrait that captures the majesty and strength of this grand vessel as it navigates the open waters. The ship, its sails fully unfurled, glides through the deep blue sea, with the artist’s signature attention to nautical detail bringing the schooner to life. The sky, a soft blend of clouds and sunlight, casts a luminous glow upon the scene, highlighting the vessel’s crisp white sails and the rich tones of its wooden hull. The surrounding water, painted with a dynamic interplay of blues and greens, reflects the movement of the waves, lending a sense of realism and depth. The meticulous rigging, fluttering flags, and the precise rendering of the ship’s structure showcase Stubbs’ expertise in maritime portraiture, making this painting a remarkable tribute to 19th-century seafaring.
A respected American marine painter, William Pierce Stubbs devoted much of his career to capturing the elegance and power of ships that plied the waters of the New England coast. His works are characterized by their technical accuracy and balanced compositions, often set against tranquil seascapes that enhance the grandeur of the vessels. Stubbs had a deep understanding of ship design, which allowed him to portray his subjects with both artistic beauty and historical precision. The Three-Masted Schooner Samuel H. Hawes is a prime example of his ability to document specific ships with remarkable fidelity, serving both as an artistic masterpiece and an invaluable historical record of the maritime industry.
Stubbs’ work is deeply rooted in the American marine art tradition of the 19th century, a period when seafaring and trade played a crucial role in the country’s economic expansion. His paintings are highly regarded for their ability to bridge the gap between artistic expression and documentary accuracy, making them prized pieces among collectors of maritime art. The Three-Masted Schooner Samuel H. Hawes is an exceptional example of his contribution to this movement, preserving the legacy of a bygone era of maritime excellence through his masterful brushwork and keen eye for nautical detail.
This 3 masted schooner, was one of the fastest vessels in the 1880s. Traveling through New England, Stubbs was a known figure painting in the regular ports along the coast. This oil is in excellent condition on a bright and breezy day. A light chop to the well rendered water, and full sunshine upon the very white sails. The frame is from the Metropolitan Museum collection.

The Screw-Steamer Westernland.
Located in Jacksonville, FL
Antonio Nicolo Gasparo Jacobsen’s The Screw-Steamer Westernland captures the imposing presence and engineering prowess of this late 19th-century steamship. The vessel is depicted in motion, cutting through the waters with its towering masts and powerful steam funnel in full display. Jacobsen’s meticulous attention to detail brings the Westernland to life, from the carefully rendered hull and rigging to the soft ripples in the water reflecting the ship’s passage. The backdrop, a moody yet luminous sky, adds to the sense of movement and grandeur, emphasizing the ship’s role in the rapidly evolving maritime industry of the time.
Jacobsen, renowned for his precise and historically significant ship portraits, played a vital role in documenting the era’s most important vessels. His work on The Screw-Steamer Westernland exemplifies his ability to blend artistic finesse with technical accuracy, making his paintings invaluable both as historical records and as masterful works of art. His contributions to maritime painting ensured that the ships of his time would be immortalized with the same grandeur they once commanded on the open seas.
