ODEN ROSENVINGECUNARD / EUROPE-AMERICA. Circa 1914.
38 1/4x25 inches. Turner & Dunnet, London.
Condition A-: minor restoration at edges.
In an allegorical depiction of the old ways of the sea being replaced by the new, two sailors have stopped unfurling a sail and are waving at a passing luxry liner. Given the ship's profile, and Rosenvinge's talent as a nautical painter, she would appear to be the Aquitania<>-- a ship depicted by the artist in at least two other posters.
