Fitz Henry Lane, 1854 - The Golden State Entering New York Harbor - fine art print

Original information about the artwork from The Metropolitan Museum of Art (© Copyright - The Metropolitan Museum of Art - www.metmuseum.org)

Influenced by the English-born, Boston-based painter Robert Salmon, Lane, early in his career, painted the ports and shipping vessels of Boston; of his native Gloucester, Massachusetts; and, for a time in the early 1850s, of New York City. The clipper ship Golden State was built in New York in 1852 and, as its name suggests, plied the seas around Cape Horn to California when overland travel across the North American continent was still unreliable and before the opening of the Panama Canal in 1914 made it no longer necessary to take such an extensive southern detour. The skyline of New York, as seen from New Jersey, is delineated in the background.

This modern art piece of art was made by the male artist Fitz Henry Lane. The 160 year-old version of the masterpiece was painted with the dimensions: 26 x 48 in (66 x 122 cm) and was crafted with the technique of oil on canvas. The artpiece is part of the digital art collection of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, which is one of the world's largest and finest art museums, which includes more than two million works of art spanning five thousand years of world culture, from prehistory to the present and from every part of the globe.. This public domain artpiece is included with courtesy of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, Purchase, Gift of Hanson K. Corning, by exchange, and Morris K. Jesup and Maria DeWitt Jesup Funds, 1974. Creditline of the artwork: Purchase, Gift of Hanson K. Corning, by exchange, and Morris K. Jesup and Maria DeWitt Jesup Funds, 1974. What is more, the alignment of the digital reproduction is in landscape format and has a side ratio of 16 : 9, which implies that the length is 78% longer than the width.
