Wanted: Sell your 19th Century Ship Portrait

We are looking for works by:

Artist:
|
Napier, George Alexander (Scottish, 1828-1869) - Oilpaintings on canvas |
|
Place:
|
Lived and worked in Glasgow, Scotland |
|
Motifs:
|
Ship Portraits of Sailing Vessels and Steamers. |
|
Prices:
|
Very few paintings were offered in the past years, therefore a reliable price range is not available. Prices depend on subject, size, date, quality and condition. Please send us an e-mail to receive an exact offer for your work by this artist (free of charge for persons considering to sell their painting). |
|
Notes:
|
Napier´s style was influenced by the Liverpool School to which his paintings can be compared. But as he had a very limited output he is not so well known and sought after. Information about the artist can also be found in our book "Ship Portrait Artists". |
