Bille received first hand nautical experience through his former profession as a seafarer and started his artistic career at the age of 35. Although widely known for his romantic seascapes, he also did a few ship portraits prior to 1867. Quite a few paintings of inferior quality bear his signature or are wrongly attributed. The FineArtEmporium is interested in the direct purchase of fine ship portraits by Carl Ludwig Bille and can pay a good price .
