Orlinski, A.A. The Battle Of Trafalgar. Poland's Anna and Andy Orlinski, are known the world over for their historic maritime paintings boasting astounding detail and passion. Offered here an amazing sea panorama of The Battle of Trafalgar in October of 1805, a massive naval engagement between the Royal Navy led by Admiral Lord Nelson and the combined navies of the French and Spanish. The large number of ships involved in this battle are only partially represented here but the ferocity and scale is beautifully captured where 23 Franco-Spanish ships were destroyed, but not one British vessel. Quite a stunning piece. Be sure to check out a second painting offered in this auction by the Orlinski's of the USS Bonhomme Richard under the command of John Paul Jones in the Battle of Glamborough Head. This oil on canvas measures 20" x 40", handsomely framed to 28" x 48". Buyer responsible for 3rd party shipping.
