Edvard Skari -
Shipping in the Oresund, Kronborg Castle beyond, ca. late 1870s
or early 1880s, a full-rigged Ship is passing the Oresund and
taking a pilot, many other sailing vessels in the background - signed
lower right - Oil on canvas 60 x 95 cm (24 by 37 1/2 inch) without
the frame - good condition (not relined, a few areas of repairs
and inpaint, mainly in the sky) - Property of a European Collection
Note: The artist painted some versions
with this motif. Another, larger example (80 by 126 cm and dated
1878) is in the Collection of the Norges Rederiforbund (described
and illustrated under Nr. 22 in "Norsk Maritim Malerkunst"
and in the Art Maritim Catalogue 2000) and the Norsk Sjofartsmuseum
has as well a similar painting by Skari in their "Gram-Salen"
