Here is a vintage oil on Masonite board ship portrait painting of a clipper/sailing boat/yacht. Really unsure what type of ship this is so please email me if you know. It measures 23 3/4 x 29 1/2 ins., painting alone is 20 x 26 ins. It is framed in its original wormwood/driftwood style picture frame. The painting is in good/very good as is vintage condition with only some very minor chip of paint to the far right., and a minor scrape. Really nothing much at all for age. I would date this to the 1940s, to very early 1950s time period. Perfect for Nautical, Maritime, Mid-Century, ship painting collectors, ocean homes, beach homes, and 1940-50s decors.

AFTER the Sea-Ship--after the whistling winds;
After the white-gray sails, taut to their spars and ropes,
Below, a myriad, myriad waves, hastening, lifting up their necks,
Tending in ceaseless flow toward the track of the ship:
Waves of the ocean, bubbling and gurgling, blithely prying,
Waves, undulating waves--liquid, uneven, emulous waves,
Toward that whirling current, laughing and buoyant, with curves,
Where the great Vessel, sailing and tacking, displaced the surface;
Larger and smaller waves, in the spread of the ocean, yearnfully
flowing;
The wake of the Sea-Ship, after she passes--flashing and frolicsome,
under the sun,                                               
   A motley procession, with many a fleck of foam, and many fragments,
Following the stately and rapid Ship--in the wake following.
                        By Walt Whitman (1819-1892)                         

Many Thanks,
