It was a maritime week for Antiqueswest as a superb ship's model sailed on to a new owner and a new painting sailed in, believed to be by American painter Arthur Onslow and signed on the reverse.
Oral history has it that the depiction is of provisions and inmates boarding a "prison ship," unknown harbor but possible in the Americas though one ship bears the British flag. Great detail, two repairs to the reverse.
More photos on the way and as we learn more, we'll post it. Thanks for your inquiries.
