CONRAD FREITAG
New York/Germany, 1843-1894
New York Pilot Schooner No. 13 Caldwell under full sail, flying the American merchant flag from the rear mast. Steam/sail vessel and a three-masted ship on the distant horizon. Signed in red lower left "C. Freitag 173 South Str. N.Y.". Housed in its original frame.
Oil on board, 12.5" x 16.5". Framed 18" x 22".
Notes:
The pilot boat seen here is the typical design for that era, with a plum bow and rounded stern. The hull, sail seams, reef points and decks are well-detailed and accurate, and the sky and water are beautifully rendered, as typical of Conrad Freitag's style.Condition of painting: The painting has some small areas of scattered in-paint in the sky and a small amount of in-paint in the sails. Condition of frame: The painting retains its original gold leaf frame which is in excellent condition.Condition
