Item Overview

Description

Carl Evers (1907-2000) Original pencil drawing illustration of city bridge with ships in the harbor. Signed lower left C. Evers (Carl Evers). Image measures approximately 11 inches tall by 14 inches long. You will find little argument from artists or collectors by calling Carl Evers one of the finest marine artists of the twentieth century. His ability to capture water in motion, feeling for light, exquisite drawing and incredibly rendered detail give his paintings a vibrancy that few can rival. Born in Germany, schooled at the Slade School in London, his first job was as an automotive illustrator for sixteen years in Sweden. In 1947 he moved to the United States, traveling there appropriately by freighter. He soon was busy full time painting tugs, liners, freighters and the working waterfront for every major line, including Cunard, Grace Line, Farrell Lines, United Fruit and Moran Towing, who used his paintings regularly on the covers of their magazine Towline. For the United States Naval Institute and its magazine Proceedings he produced dramatic battle scenes like the MONITOR vs. MERRIMAC and Admiral Dewey's flagship OLYMPIA at the Battle of Manila Bay. For 13 years he chronicled all the comings and goings in the Port of Philadelphia for the Philadelphia Electric Company. His paintings appeared regularly in Yachting, Saturday Evening Post, Argosy and nineteen times on the covers of Readers Digest. He was commissioned to illustrate The Lonely Sea and Sky of the Romantic Challenge by Sir Francis Chichester, the first who circumnavigated the globe aboard a small yacht GIPSY, The Last Grain Race by Eric Newby, Two Ocean Wars by noted marine historian Samuel Eliot Morrison and Big E by Commander Edward F. Stafford. You are bidding at a live auction, please read the terms and conditions. Shipping costs of $45 plus any insurance fees will be added to your final price. Thank you for bidding!
