Recommended from us: Oceania Cruises is the highest rated premium cruise line according to the readers of Travel + Leisure Magazine in the 2004 and 2005 World’s Best Awards. Oceania Cruises ranked among the top five large ship cruise lines in Condé Nast Traveler magazine’s 2004 Readers’ Choice Awards and was featured as one of the world’s best cruise lines on the 2005 Condé Nast Traveler Gold List. In 2004, American Express Platinum and Centurion cardholders voted Oceania Cruises a “Reader’s Favorite” in Departures, the official publication for American Express Platinum and Centurion Card Members. Oceania Cruises’ fleet features three intimate and luxurious 684-guest ships, Regatta, Insignia and Nautica. With the addition in November 2005 of the line’s third ship, Nautica, Oceania Cruises will be the world’s largest upscale cruise line. Combining the finest cuisine at sea, exceptional personalized service, luxurious accommodations and extraordinary value, Oceania Cruises is setting a new, worldwide standard for luxury cruising. The new ship Nautica is even decorated with antique marine paintings, such as the one below.

A good quality marine painting / ship portrait from the last days of the wooden ships, notable is especially the nice handling of the light in the sails and the well and detailled execution of the ship. This painting is on display on the new Oceania Cruise Ship Nautica (painting is not for sale).
