County of Edinburgh (at Point Pleasant Beach, New Jersey) |
NSAPMT26 |
From oil painting by Danish-American painter Antonio Jacobsen, circa 1902; from the collections of The Mariners’ Museum in Newport News, Va.
Although most of Jacobsen's paintings were commissioned ship portraits, he occasionally depicted actual events. County of Edinburgh, a four-masted British ship, ran aground ashore at Point Pleasant Beach, N.J., on February 12, 1900. Despite the adverse conditions that caused the ship's plight, Jacobsen (1850–1921) depicts a relatively calm scene: As locals arrive to take in the spectacle, crew are shown high in the rigging, the ship no longer in danger.
