Item description from seller

A large and attractive print depicting a fleet of five square riggers resting in the calm harbor of Charlotte Amalie, Danish Virgin Islands. The ships' masts reflect downward into the smooth blue waters with only a few sails raised, perhaps to dry. Drooping flags surmount the ship's tall spars. Natives are shown in a small rowboat in the foreground. A wharf extends from the island with people walking the shoreline there, and other ships lie farther toward the shore. A half circle of mountains dip their base into the blue-green waters of the harbor, their tops skirting the horizon, making a perfect backdrop for this somnolent scene. Handcolored woodcut print, approximately 21 x 7 inches, on black lined white mat, 19¾ x 30 inches. A fine image.
