Painting of a Merchant Ship

content: unknown
notes: label: Description
content: The painting shows a three masted, square-rigged ship shown in a full portside profile. The ship is flying the American Flag, though there is no indication of its name. Three other ships are visible in the painting, two behind and one in front. To the left of the ship is a view of the mountains. There is a T-shaped break in the canvas, and the painting was probably over-cleaned and retouched. The painting is in poor condition.
