Shipping off the coast by English artist Thomas Luny. Oil on canvas signed and dated 35' in the lower left. Nice period and possibly original frame. Thomas Luny (1759–1837), born in Cornwall, probably at St Ewe, was an English artist and painter, mostly of seascapes and other marine-based works. At the age of eleven, Luny left Cornwall to live in London. There he became the apprentice of Francis Holman, a marine painter who would have a great and long lasting artistic influence on Luny: Luny remained until 1780 in Holman's London studio, which, was first situated in Broad Street, St. George's, and later relocated to Old Gravel Lane. Examples of his work are exhibited at the National Maritime Museum at Greenwich, in the Royal Albert Memorial Museum in Exeter, and at The Mariners' Museum in Newport...

This exceptional maritime oil painting, signed by renowned American artist James Gale Tyler (1855–1931), beautifully captures the majesty of a tall sailing ship navigating through deep ocean waters. Tyler, celebrated for his vivid depictions of seascapes and nautical life, brings the composition to life with dynamic brushwork, dramatic skies, and a commanding ship in full sail. The churning waves and towering vessel reflect his mastery of light, texture, and atmosphere, making this painting a quintessential example of American marine art from the late 19th to early 20th century. Housed in an ornate gilt frame, the painting exudes grandeur and elegance, ideal for collectors of nautical antiques, maritime art, and historic American paintings...

A beautiful and dramatic painting with a cool, brisk feel. The painting is in fine condition, with one small patch along the upper margin and a tiny spot of corresponding inpainting. Measures:24 in H x 20 in W Framed: 29 in H x 25 in W George Howell Gay was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and educated in Chicago under Paul Brown and Henry Elkins, and in 1889 moved to Bronxville, New York. He worked in all media, but was especially fond of watercolor, which allowed him to capture the transparency of the ocean and the luminous qualities of sunlight and clouds. Gay worked along the Northeastern coast from Rhode Island to Maine, but also painted summer and winter landscapes throughout New England. Gay’s seascapes were exhibited at the Boston Art...
