Arthur Quartley (1839-1886) American, Oil
Est: $400 - $800
A dramatic painting depicting a steam sailship standing off the coast while the crew battles through the surf to return to the ship. Signed oil on canvas mounted on board. Provenance: Private Collection San Francisco. One of the leading marine painters of his time, Arthur Quartley captured the poetic, atmospheric qualities of the marine landscape. Born in Paris, Quartley lived in France and England before he and his father moved to the United States. He established a studio in New York City in 1876 where he became famous for his seascapes of East Hampton, Narragansett Bay, the Isle of Shoals, Cold Spring Harbor, and the North Shore of Massachusetts. Sadly, Quartleys promising life was truncated by his early death, leaving his body of work to eternalize his rare talent. Overall Size: 14 1/4 x 18 in. Sight Size: 9 1/2 x 13 in. #1340
