michaelpsutton2 got a reaction from Canute in Frank J H Gardiner Painting
A lot of the details show the ship as he would have seen her in dry dock in 1982. Not really as she is believed to have been configured in 1805

To my untrained and age compromised eyes there is a similarity of style.

I'm sorry but I did not get enough protein as a child to find Lot 20 on the link. Can you help?

michaelpsutton2 got a reaction from jchbeiner in Colours for HMS/HMAV Bounty
I believe that the cover of the "Anatomy of the Ship" volume on the Bounty is about as good a guess as you will get. There are no contemporary pictures are verbal descriptions. The blue color on the replica from the 60's was a complete fantasy. I would go with varnished hull. Black wale. Yellow rails and quarter badge and black quarter deck bulwarks. The current replica has the bottom most plank of the bulwarks removed and the stanchions painted red. I am not sure of that at all. The plans made when she was converted for the trip do not show that feature and seem to suggest sold bulwarks on the quarterdeck and an open rail forward of that in the waist. The current replica is red below the waterline and that is definitely out. Look at pic's of merchant ships of the period as well as 6th rates

As you all know I am a painter. Last week I came across this beauty in a thrift/consignment store. Naturally the subject caught my eye. On closer examination I began to develop the delusion that it is an original, an idea that becomes ever firmly rooted in my feverish brain as time has gone on. I can see faint pencil lines under the wash. I can see the tips of the oars under the white gouache of the sea foam. The name is certainly hand lettered on the matting and the gold stripe is a thin piece of something glued on. I have not removed it from the frame. It seems somewhat more detailed than other works by this artist. I thought it could be a hand tinted print, but I do not see any other copies of thus composition for sale. Anybody know anything about this painting or about this guy? Anybody know how to tell if it is real/original?
