Colour etching, signed with pencil in the lower right In the original steel (welded) frame with glass plate. Oscar Verpoorten was a self-taught engraver with his own vision and an etching technique that is characterised as being recognisably pure, strong and non-conformist. His fascination with iron, aged ships and constructions makes their raw beauty audible and tangible. The work of Oscar Verpoorten is on display at the Maritiemmuseum, the Northern Maritime Museum, the Reddings Museum and the Zeeuws Maritiem Musein Nederland.
