Large Oil Depicting a Naval Battle

£300.00
A large-scale contemporary oil painting on stretched canvas depicting a dynamic naval boarding action. 175cm wide * 118cm tall The composition captures two sailing vessels locked in combat, with a densely packed group of sailors and pirates engaged in hand-to-hand fighting. Figures are shown climbing complex rigging, firing flintlock pistols, and wielding melee weapons across the gap between the ships. One vessel features a prominent carved lion figurehead at the prow, set against a backdrop of billowing sails and towering masts under a hazy sky. The work is executed with energetic, illustrative brushwork in a vibrant palette of blues, reds, and earthy tones. Strong diagonal lines created by the ropes and masts enhance the sense of movement and narrative chaos.
