| Description |
English: By Karl Beutel, oil on canvas 24 x 48 inches
My own painting imagining the ship moving for the first time under her own steam in the liquid squalour of Belfast Lough. Later that day she steamed down to Southampton. The people waving from the small boats are supposed to be shipyard workers, representative of the 12,000 or more who toiled away like Pharaoh's slaves to build Olympic and Titanic within three years. The woman in the shawl is intended to suggest the Statue of Liberty which the ship never saw, while the wooden boats were practically all that was left when she sank on the 15th of April 1912. For the purposes of authenticity the black hull in my painting could have done with being less shiny. |
