Maritime oil on canvas painting of the English Clipper Ship Cambridge In Coastal Water, by William Pierce Stubbs (American, 1842-1949), bearing brass title plaque on frame. Stubbs was an American marine painter. Born in Orrington, Maine, he was the son of a shipmaster, and was master of his father’s ship from 1863-73. In 1871 Stubbs painted what is likely his first ship portrait, and by 1876 he was listed as a marine painter in the Boston city directory. [Art: 26" H x 22" W; Frame: 30 1/2" H x 45" W].
