This original vintage seascape oil painting, from the early 1940s, shows a sailing ship moving through dark waves under a cloudy sky. The deep blue sea, pale sky and distant ship give the piece a dramatic but timeless maritime look.
The frame size is H 20.5 × W 24.5 in / H 52 × W 62 cm.
The gold frame gives it a classic look and makes the painting ready to hang. The wide frame gives the artwork more impact on the wall, while the simple composition keeps the focus on the ship and the movement of the sea.
The painting is monogrammed in the lower corner. A handwritten note on the back identifies the artist as Willy Bille, a Danish marine painter known for seascapes and sailing ships, with the dates 1889-1944 written beside the name.
A one-of-a-kind vintage maritime painting that adds character and depth to a home. It would work beautifully in a hallway, study, living room or above a console.
