Painting

One watercolor painting of the passenger steamship, CITY of SOUTH HAVEN. The painting shows a starboard side view of the ship which is underway in fair weather. The ship has a black hull, white decks, and two smokestacks with black/red/white horizontal stripes. Black smoke is pouring out of both smokestacks and white steam is rising from the whistle. A shoreline is faintly visible in the left background. A lighthouse can be seen at the end of a harbor breakwater in the right background. The artist has signed his name, "Edward J. Dowling, 1964," at the lower left corner. The painting is held in a decorative, gold-colored wood frame with a white cloth matte border and protective glass.
