Lot Essay

As noted on pages 262 and 263 of Harold Sniffen's Antonio Jacobsen - The Checklist, Paintings and Sketches by Antonio N.G. Jacobsen, 1850-1921, the steamship St. Johns was built by Harlan & Hollingsworth of Wilmington, Delaware and owned by C.C. Leary & Co. based in New York from 1878-1941. Jacobsen painted and sketched four versions of this vessel between 1880 and 1887.
