Fitz Henry Lane

Here's a painting that I have loved ever since I first discovered it through the Internet -- Becalmed off Halfway Rock, 1860, by American painter Fitz Henry Lane (1804-1865) 

The National Gallery of Art, where "Becalmed off Halfway Rock, possesses two other works by Lane --

• New York Harbor, 1852

• Lumber Schooners at Evening on Penobscot Bay, 1863

You can find numerous other fine paintings by this artist by consulting Fitz Hugh Lane Online.
