About the piece
Created in 1866 by the celebrated marine artist William Howard Yorke, this painting depicts the American clipper Vermont as it cuts through a swelling green sea. Yorke masterfully renders the intricate rigging and the voluminous sails against a vast, atmospheric sky, capturing the power and elegance of mid-19th-century merchant sailing vessels.
