Antique Ship Painting by Unknown Artist

30 x 25 cm painting on board

42 x 47 cm frame

This little antique is very cute… the style of painting has very soft edges, and the muted colours are really attractive. Perfect to start a nautical themed gallery wall, you can mix and match this piece with other nautical paintings, prints, or framed textured fabrics.

I collected this piece from its second owner in Toronto. It had been imported years ago from Scotland. It was in very dirty condition, so I gave it a gentle clean to lift off food splatters. Whatever this has been varnished with was not lifting off, it would need a specialist to restore it fully. (But I kind of like it as is!) The gorgeous detailed frame has some pieces missing, but it is still pretty interesting.
