Item Details

A striking, large, late C19th pier head painting of the barque ‘Meinwen’.


A wonderfully naive depiction which fills the canvas, in a style reminiscent of the famous Cornish fisherman artist Alfred Wallis.


The steel barque ‘Meinwen’ was built in 1892 by R&J Evans and Company, Liverpool forJG Evans‘ Meinwen Ship Co.


The ship was registered in Liverpool and predominantly sailed between Britain and Australia.


She was sold to a Norwegian shipping company in 1910 and was renamed ‘Alfhild’.


Gouache on canvas, c1895. Framed and glazed.
