A finely executed ship's portrait by Carolus Ludovicus Weyts (Belgian, 1828-1875). Carolus is a son of the famed Belgian reverse-glass ship painter Petrus Cornelis Weyts.
The painting depicts the fully-rigged ship “Banner” off South Stack Lighthouse, Angelsey, likely heading into Liverpool Harbour. Flying from the foremast is the “Pilot Jack," indicating the ship is requiring a pilot vessel for entrance to the harbour.
Banner was built at Gilmour's Yard in Quebec, Canada in 1863. She was used for trade between the United Kingdom and India, also undertaking voyages to South America.
