Fishing at Sunset
Originally called “Sunset Malta Best Time to Fish” by the artist and changed by Portland Gallery to “Fishing at Sunset”. Painted in 2004. This was inspired by some photographs taken looking directly into the sun in Malta.
In the resulting painting Rolf particularly liked the use of opposite colours, red and deep translucent green. The green creates a great impression of looking down throughout the water, especially in the shadow of the various boats. The reflection of the brilliant sunlight bouncing off the waves works very well and the way the colour of these reflections moves from pearl white through to brilliant yellow contrasts so well with the red and pink colours on the surface of the waves.
The painting was released in a limited edition of 395 plus 40 artist’s proofs on paper and 125 plus 10 artist’s proofs on canvas in 2006.
This is the Original. A great investment opportunity for the future.

DEFENDER
Designer : Nathanael Greene Herreshoff
Builder : Herreshoff Manufacturing Company
- 1895: Victorious defender of the 1895 America's Cup
1895
Defender is Nathanael Greene Herreshoff's second victorious defender. The boat is designed in the utmost secrecy and her construction shrouded in mystery. No one was allowed to enter the yard, especially not press or photographers.
In building Defender, the Herreshoff brothers' special innovation is the use of Aluminum. But, just after the boat is launched, is becomes evident that is suffers from a little known phenomenon: corrosion due to electrolysis. This type of construction allowed a weight saving of 17 tonnes over classical building methods.
During the defence selection trials, Defender sails against Vigilant, Volunteer and Jubilee. During the final, only Vigilant (1893) skippered Charlie Barr races against Defender. On August 10 Vigilant notches up a win. Defender does not finish due to rig problems. Defender strikes back on August 29 and 30 with two easy wins against Vigilant and is selected to defend the America's Cup against the British yacht Valkyrie III.
America's Cup
September 7 to 12, 1895, off New York
Defender races against Valkyrie III in the best of five series
Three different courses.
The first one: 15 miles to windward off Scotland Lightship and return.
The second one: equilateral triangle, 30 nautical miles
The third one: 15 miles to leeward and return from Sandy Hook Lightship.
Results
Defender beats Valkyrie III by three wins to nil

ENDEAVOUR
Designer : Charles E. Nicholson
Builder : Camper & Nicholsons
- 1934: Challenger, defeated in the 15th America's Cup by the defender Rainbow
Endeavour was defeated in the 1934 America's Cup by the defender Rainbow by a three to two score, one of the closest series in history. Endeavour raced the 1935 British yachting season when Yankee visited Europe winning nine times against eight wins for Yankee. Sold in 1936 to Herman A. Andreae.
In 1937, Endeavour, chartered by Andreae to Fred Sigrist and Philip Hall, made another passage to the US and won. Skippered by Captain Ted Heard, it handed Ranger one of its two losses in 1937.
Laid up at the Camper & Nicholson Gosport Yard in 1938 and then towed to a mud berth it was bought in 1947 by Charles Kiridge who sold her to Richard and Renée Lucas. Twenty years later, they sold Endeavour to some Americans. The Maritime Trust took charge of it for a time before it was bought by Mr. & Mrs. Amos and Graham Jack. In 1979, they started a six year restoration project.
In the Autumn of 1984, Elizabeth Meyer bought Endeavour and rebuilt it from 1984 to 1989. Builder/refit: Elizabeth Meyer, Calshot Spit, UK, then Royal Huisman Shipyard, Netherlands. Re-launched in May 20th, 1989. Sold in 2001 to L. Dennis Kozlowski.

VIGILANT
Designer : Nathanael Greene Herreshoff
Builder : Herreshoff Manufacturing Company
- 1893: Victorious defender of the eighth America's Cup (1893). Winner over Valkyrie II (GBR).

Vigilant won the 1893 American selection trials for the Cup defence and had beaten Colonia, Jubilee and Pilgrim.
America's Cup races: Sailed October 7 to 13, 1893 in New York
Best three out of five races.
Vigilant vs. Valkyrie II
Alternating courses: the first one, 15 miles to windward off Scotland Lightship and return; the second one, equilateral triangle, 30 miles.
Races: three sailed.

Isaac Sailmaker
Isaac Sailmaker was born in Scheveningen. When he was very young he travelled to London and became a pupil of the Dutch painter George Geldorp. Sailmakers background is not very well recorded but he is acknowledged as being one of the true forerunners of the British School of marine artists, which blossomed into full array in the 19th Century.
He was employed to paint a picture for Oliver Cromwell, a prospect of the fleet before Mardyke when the town was taken in 1657. A portrait of Cromwell holding a baton with a sea battle in the background attributed to Sailmaker was in the Haworth Sale at Christies on 14 December 1923.
In 1708 he was commissioned by Colonel John Lovett MP to paint the second Eddystone Lighthouse, a wooden construction designed by John Rudyerd. Sailmaker made four versions of this painting of which three have survived.
Although Dutch by birth he is often thought to be the father of British Marine painting. He lived and worked in Britain from Childhood. His name is thought to be the anglicised version of ‘Zeilmaker’. He had a house and studio by the Thames in Kings Bench Walk.
One of the great merits of his paintings lie first and foremost in their documentary qualities.
He portrayed ships in two positions and recorded the actions of the English fleet adding to the historical subjects such traditional elements of imaginary seascapes as sea creatures.
His painting of the Eddystone Lighthouse (destroyed by fire on 1755) is a topographical record of a structure that no longer exists.
Sailmaker died in London on 28 June 1721 at the age of 88.
Works represented: Nine in the National Maritime Museum; Ferens Art Gallery; Government Art Collection London; Painter-Stainers Company London; Trinity House London; Nottingham Castle Museum & Art Gallery.
