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.

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.

Portrait Of The Screw-Steamer Pennland In New York Harbor
Located in Jacksonville, FL
ntonio Nicolo Gasparo Jacobsen’s Portrait of the Screw-Steamer Pennland in New York Harbor captures the grandeur of maritime travel in the late 19th century. The painting depicts the Pennland, a majestic steamship, cutting through the waters of New York Harbor with billowing smoke rising from its funnel. The vessel is painted with Jacobsen’s signature precision, showcasing the intricate details of its hull, rigging, and deck structures. The serene yet powerful presence of the ship is set against a dynamic harbor scene, where smaller vessels dot the waters and the soft hues of the sky reflect on the gentle waves. Jacobsen’s expert use of perspective and lighting lends a sense of depth and realism, making the viewer feel as though they are witnessing the ship’s arrival firsthand.
As one of the most prolific maritime painters of his time, Jacobsen played a crucial role in documenting the golden age of steam travel. His works, including this detailed portrait of the Pennland, not only celebrate the engineering feats of the era but also serve as historical records of significant vessels. The transition from sail to steam was a defining moment in maritime history, and Jacobsen’s meticulous paintings capture this evolution with remarkable accuracy. His contributions to the maritime art movement remain invaluable, preserving the legacy of the great ships that once traversed the world’s oceans.

Portrait Of The Steam/Sail Ship The Prins Frederik Hendrik.
Located in Jacksonville, FL
This oil is a classic example of Jacobsen's work from his best period done way before 1900. In these oils the water is done with great sense of naturalism, due to his constant experiences at the harbors in New York and New Jersey. It is his best work when the sails are up and the steam stacks are in full blast. An unusual note is that this painting is on its original canvas and is in extraordinary condition. Most Jacobsens have endured rounds of restoration which makes this painting's condition special.
This was a commissioned piece from the Captain of the flagship, Prince Frederik Hendrick, a great king during the Dutch golden age in the 17th century. The Captain was very proud of this vessel, and upon the safe entrance into the New York port, hired Jacobsen to commemorate this voyage.
