Elisha Taylor (ET) Baker ART FOR SALE

In this atmospheric and luminous work the busy port of New York hosts a huge number of ships coming and going near the Battery and the famous landmark of Castle Garden under a golden light of the sun hanging low on the horizon. Very good condition - 25.75 x 43.5 in. framed.

Depicts American brig E. MILLER in full sail with sailors active on deck, Baker only signed about a third of his paintings, so this is not unusual for the artist. The rendering of the vessel to his touch in the sea and sky all give very clear clues that the work is his. 29 1/4 x 37 1/2 in framed
