WILLIAM HOWARD YORKE
United Kingdom/Canada, 1847-1921

The Swedish ship Saturnes inward bound for Liverpool with the familiar landmark South Stack, Anglesey, just under the tip of her bowsprit. Signed and dated 1881 and inscribed "Lpool".

Built in 1855 in Hamburg by Reiherstieg Shipyard for J.C. Godeffroy & Son, the Saturnes was later purchased by C.A. Banck of Helsingborg, Sweden, in 1881. She was a good-sized ship for the time and her principal dimensions were 177 x 33 x 21.1 feet. Banck didn't have her for long as she is recorded as "abandoned" in the 1887 Lloyd's Register.
Oil on canvas, 24" x 36". Framed.

Condition: Overall good condition. The canvas surface is dirty, does not appear to have been cleaned by last purchaser, and would currently benefit from a cleaning. There is an area of oxidized paint on the lower right. Damage top left quadrant. Wear to paint along edges, where frame meets canvas. UV reveals some in paint/repairs, some of which are visible to naked eye. May be more repairs, that are concealed by varnish, which prevents UV reading from being 100% accurate.
