About the Item
British Sailor's Woolwork of a Two-masted Schooner,
Circa 1875
The naive sailor's woolwork depicts a port side view of a two-masted schooner under sail. The hull in black and red and the sails in white wool. She flies a Blue Ensign from her mizzenmast as well as a small white triangular ensign.
What truly sets this piece apart is the atmospheric glow in the sky, subtly representing a setting sun. The white sails, stitched with remarkable directional precision from top to bottom, possess a distinct luminosity that contrasts strikingly with the main body of the woolwork. This intricate detail highlights the sailor's skill and artistic sensibility.
Dimensions: 17 1/2 inches high x 22 3/4 inches wide.
Now elegantly presented, this maritime artwork is housed in a beautiful maple frame featuring a classic ogee-form. The frame is fitted with museum glass, chosen specifically for its ability to significantly reduce reflections while offering substantial UV protection, safeguarding this piece for years to come.
