Antonio Jacobsen
Portrait Of The Steam/Sail Ship The Prins Frederik Hendrik

1896

About the Item

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.
