Oil Painting of Danish Merchant Marine ship Georg Stage

By coolgcollectibles, 14 January, 2009
Description

The painting is held by an intricate wooden frame with beautiful gold paint and black accents.  I don't know the artist or when the piece could have been painted.  Could this be an antique?  Researching what I could gather from the internet, the Georg Stage was built of steel in Fredrikshavn in 1935 to replace the previous Georg Stage as a schoolship for the Danish merchant marine.  She was rigged as a full-rigged ship carrying royals over single topgallant sails and double topsails, and was equipped with an auxiliary engine.  The Georg Stage still serves her original purpose; the trainees stay aboard for five months learning seamanship and related subjects.  She is the smallest sailing full-rigged ship in the world.

If anyone has any other information about this paintings value please feel free to comment.  The painting was a gift from my dad and I am only selling it because my wife isn't fond of maritime art.
