Members of the Lord help me identify the author,

Oil on canvas 25x40

that there is no version ...
?

And will not.
Even if you set the big picture.

Perhaps the school Aivazovsky, the last third of 19 century.

More difficult to say here.

500 d.gotov offer.

Are you serious?
Well then this is a sloppy student "school of Aivazovsky's" image of the flag at the stern more shipping tube.

Well, under the "School of Aivazovsky's" you can understand what you want.
Judging by the style, it seems to me that this 60-70's 19 th century.
$ 500 for this - more than generous price.

Many beginners, it happens, are asked to rate the picture. At least on an artistic level.
This picture, in my opinion, an almost perfect example of such a procedure. Especially since the price offered for it.

One nesusvetny blooper SergeiSK has already noted.
Seeing others can be more sensibly relate to advantages available to you works. Independently.

Yes, and the pipe, apparently ill gigantism.
Poor steamer doplyvet if ...?

Surely, the school Aivazovsky this taught?

The artist, probably, and the steamer had not seen.

January 26, 1904 Japanese fleet of six cruisers and eight destroyers went to the Gulf Chemulpo and stopped at the outer roads: on the inner roads at that time were Russian ships - the cruiser Varyag and seaworthy gunboat "Korean" as well as cargo and passenger steamer "Songhua River." Stood as foreign warships.

Early in the morning on Jan. 27, 1904 VF Rudnev received an ultimatum to the Japanese Rear Admiral S. Uriu with the requirement to leave the Chemulpo to 12 hours of the day, otherwise the Japanese threatened to open fire on Russian ships in a neutral port, which was a flagrant violation of international law.

VF Rudnev crew announced that Japan started military actions against Russia. Varyag weighed anchor and headed for the exit of the bay. In the wake of the gunboat was "Korean" (commander captain 2 rank G. Belyaev). The ships broke through the military alert.

Most likely, the painting depicts Russian gunboats during the Russian-Japanese War.
