About the Item

Edward William Cooke was born in Pentonville. His father, George Cooke, and uncle William Bernard Cooke were also well-known line engravers. Growing up in an environment of artists, he discovered his love of drawing and the art of engraving at a young age and perfected his passion over the years accordingly. His simultaneous preference for sea motifs (mainly sailing ships) eventually led to the publication of his "Shipping and Crafts", a series of completed copperplate engravings, at the age of 18. In 1858 he was elected to the National Academy of Design as an honorary academician.

Ship LUCY G. DOW
Located in Costa Mesa, CA
The strength of a great ship portrait lies with its overall striking composition blended with an attention to detail. Charles Sidney Raleigh was extremely skilled with both elements, and this is one of his finest works. An American full-rigged ship of large proportions, LUCY G. DOW is one of many ships owned by Maine interests, where the ship would be locally built and consortium owned. More Maine captains owned part of their ships than any other East Coast region, it appears through an informal survey of lists. Note the fine details of the captain and crew hard at work onboard off the coast. The numerous buildings are clustered on the peninsular stretch with a pier coming out near the lighthouse’s walkway. At the distance, ship masts...
