Ocean Liner Art

Ocean liner Bremen in New York

Bremen (New York)

WATERCOLOR . 20,3 x 33,7 cm. [SOLD]

This small watercolor painting shows the arrival of Bremen in New York. The Manhattan skyline can be seen appearing out of the mist. I this painting I wanted to capture the excitement of a liner which arrives in the New World after many days at sea. The misty colors and calm weather conditions makes this an atmospheric painting to look at.

In a heavy storm in the Indian Ocean the once so pride Bremen sank at position 07°35’N60°12’E. Seven cats onboard the ship lost their lives. Besides all the speculations of her end a romantic reading is that the ship chose a seaman’s grave over the cutting torches.
