Lot 1186: A Collection of Framed Decorative Prints and Photographs
This framed maritime print is a reproduction after the artist John Chancellor, depicting the SS Great Eastern in a bustling nineteenth-century harbour setting. The scene illustrates the large steamship with its characteristic six masts and five funnels moored at a quay, surrounded by smaller vessels and figures engaged in dockside activity. The name John Chancellor is printed in the lower-left margin below the image. The lower-centre margin contains a multi-line descriptive title, and a publisher’s mark is present in the lower-right. The print appears to be an offset lithograph or giclée on paper. It is housed under glass within a dark-stained wooden frame, featuring a gold-toned inner slip and a cream-coloured mount.
