Agostino Fossati Paintings

Italian, 1839-1904

Agostino Fossati was born in La Spezia in 1830, to Giuseppe Fossati and Clorinda Bettinotti. He was admitted to the Ornate School of La Spezia, on October 10, 1845, until he was called to teach in the same school at the end of his studies in 1853. In 1855, he was appointed professor of Geometry Linear, which he applied to his art. In 1860, he was commissioned by the City Council to paint the reading room of the Casino Civic. In 1869, he exhibited two paintings at the Promoter of Genoa and again, in 1871, three works. In 1878, at the Turin Promotrice, he exhibited the painting Along Sea (Marina). In 1880, the Promoters of Genoa and Turin exhibited his other paintings, including Shipyard Faggioni- Via San Bartolomeo in Spezia (Genoa) and Entry Team in the Gulf of Spezia after the great maneuvers. In 1882, he was appointed member of the supervisory board of the Museum of La Spezia and was also elected member of the Committee of Ornate. In 1887, he participated and was awarded a gold medal at the Penitentiary of La Spezia. In 1889, he again presented at the Promoter of Genoa and in 1890, at the Promoter of Turin. In 1892, he exhibited eight works at the Promoter of Genoa, during the Colombian festivities. In 1894, he was registered as a Professor of Ornamental design, at the Royal School of Arts and Crafts. In 1896, he presented four works at the Promoter of Genoa. He died on December 7, 1904, in his hometown.

Sagres II Ship Portrait 20th Century, signed oil painting
By Louis Letouche
Located in Cirencester, Gloucestershire
Sagres II, 1937 by Louis Letouche (French 1924-2015) oil painting on linen canvas, stretched over board framed Framed size: 18.25 x 13.75 inches Superb oil painting by the well listed French marine artist Louis Letouche (1924-2015). The painting portrays a Portugese Ship from the early 20th Century, titled: Sagres II. The three-masted ship was launched under the name Albert Leo Schlageter on 30 October 1937 at Blohm & Voss in Hamburg for Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine. The ship was named after Albert Leo Schlageter, who was executed in 1923 by French forces occupying the Ruhr area. Her first commander was Bernhard Rogge. Sagres is a sister ship of the Gorch Fock, the Horst Wessel, and the Romanian training vessel Mircea. Another sister, Herbert Norkus, was not completed, while Gorch Fock II was built in 1958 by the Germans to replace the ships lost after the war. Following a number of international training voyages, the ship was used as a stationary office ship after the outbreak of World War II and was only put into ocean-going service again in 1944 in the Baltic Sea. On 14 November 1944 she hit a Soviet mine off Sassnitz and had to be towed to port in Swinemünde. Eventually transferred to Flensburg, she was taken over there by the Allies when the war ended and finally confiscated by the United States. In 1948, the U.S. sold her to Brazil for a symbolic price of $5,000 USD.She was towed to Rio de Janeiro where she sailed as a school ship for the Brazilian Navy under the name Guanabara. In 1961, Ambassador Teotónio Pereira of Portugal, who was also a man of the sea...
