Max Sinclair Fl. 1880-1900 Oil Shipping Scene
We are delighted to offer an oil on canvas by the accomplished and highly collectable artist MAX SINCLAIR, who has signed the painting in the lower left hand corner. The painting is a marine scene at sunset, with a clipper ship, with its sails reefed being towed by a paddle tug into harbour. The sailors are just furling the spinnaker. There is also a fishing vessel with brown sails and a small steamer leaving port and heading out to sea. Typical of the artist's marine scenes, the details of the ships are executed in fine detail.
This is one of a pair of paintings by this artist that we are currently listing.
As MAX SINCLAIR did not appear to exhibit his work, although a quite prolific artist, little is known about his life. The only biographical information we could find about him is listed in Jeremy Wood's excellent book 'Hidden Talents', as follows-
'Painter of landscapes and marines in oil and watercolour. This prolific artist does not appear to have exhibited, although much of the work was inscribed and dated giving some indication of the period of his work and the location of the subjects. Most of the landscapes are views in Wales and Scotland and the majority date from the early 1880s. The marine subjects include views of the London and Liverpool docks. Many of his paintings were signed with a monogram (see index).'
Auction results for this artist are available on artprice.com (57 listings), artnet.com (54), findartinfo.com (28), arcadja.com (19) and Hislop's Guide to the UK Art Market. The record price for one of his paintings at auction in recent years has been £3,600.
The painting is framed in a nice 2 1/4" gilt frame and slip which suit it very well. It is ready to hang.
