540 Manner of the Liverpool School, 19th Century Portrait of the Bark Bangalore. Unsigned.

Condition: Fine stable craquelure, small repairs, minor retouch, minor losses. Note: This painting represents an interesting mesh of styles with subject matter. In its handling of the water and the ship, it is reminiscent of the work of Samuel Walters, one of the best known Liverpool maritime artists, and one who was known to paint exotic port scenes.

However, there were some 19th century Chinese artists who could closely mimic the Liverpool school style, and a Chinese junk appears off the Bangalore’s starboard bow. Further complicating the attribution, the port scene in the background appears to be Southeast Asian, and the small boat off the port bow appears to be manned by dark-skinned men in turbans, both of which point us in yet another direction. $3,000-4,000 541 Five Colored Glass Lamps, 19th century, a pair of cobalt and a set of three cranberry cutto-clear inserts, ht. to 6 3/4 in. $200-250 542 Victorian Decoupage Tilt-top Tea Table, mid- to late 19th century, the round top over a vasiform support and tripod cabriole leg base, decorated with decoupage roses, birds, and butterflies, (imperfections), ht. 27 1/2, wd. 19 3/4 in. $200-300 543 Canary Yellow Pressed Glass Open Salt, possibly Boston & Sandwich Glass Co., mid19th century, raised on four scrolled feet, with central shell motif, SL-12, (imperfections), ht. 1 3/4, wd. 3 1/4, dp. 1 3/4 in. $200-250 544 Green-painted Six-board Chest and a Bluepainted Display, 19th century, the six-board chest with black trim and base molding, ht. to 24, wd. to 35 1/4, dp. to 18 1/2 in. $200-300
