SPIN, Jacob (1806-1875). (Three-master with full sails, flying a Dutch flag). 1860. Watercolour on paper. 535 x 730 mm. Signed and dated in lower left corner. Framed and glazed.
Fine and very detailed seascape view. Depicted is the barque ship Robertus Hendrikus with captain Reinder Harms Lutje Mulder. Mulder was a member of the Rotterdam sailors' college and had membership number R 204. In the background a similar three-master is sailing, flying an American flag. Spin was famous for the exactness of his drawings, because he was probably a former sailor. - Scheen II, p. 376-7.€ 700
