Vintage ‘Yachts of the America’s Cup’ Tim Thompson Signed Special Edition Framed Print of 1903 Race Shamrock III v. Reliance. ‘In 1903 Shamrock III was to be Sir Thomas Lipton’s 3rd challenge for the Cup in 5 years. She was an unworthy antagonist for Reliance, the defender, which was the most impressive of all yachts ever to sail in the America’s Cup Races.’ Stunning large custom matted and framed print, signed by well-known maritime artist Tim Thompson.
Tim was born in Hull, Yorkshire but spent his early years in the Channel Islands. On Herm his home, Belvoir House, was 2 minutes from the sea and so he had an all year round view of the sea in all weathers and has called on those memories many times in his career. Tim’s art has been collected by marine art connoisseurs around the world. His work is in the collections of many British, American and European Captains of Industry including Ted Turner, Wm. Koch and David Rosow. Tim is self-taught and uses traditional oil techniques, rather like the methods used by the old dutch marine artists, applying thin washes to achieve an almost translucent effect rarely seen in contemporary marine art.
