Shamrock IV
Shamrock IV Leaving for New York from Portsmouth, 18 July 1914," created by Charles Dixon.
Subject: The painting depicts the yacht Shamrock IV departing Portsmouth for New York on July 18, 1914.
Artist: Charles Dixon.
Medium: Oil on canvas.
Provenance: The painting was gifted in 1932 by the Trustees of the Estate of Sir Thomas Lipton.
Yes, Lipton as in the tea!
Of more interest to me are the warships in the background. King George V class battleships, some destroyers, most headed for Jutland eventually.
