Antique Oil Painting A Moonlight Sail by Maine Coastline

  

This is an unusually lengthy antique oil painting depicting a moonlight sail along the Maine coastline done by a very talented but unknown artist - the painting was done from the perspective of the artist viewing the scene from the shoreline of the ocean looking out at the sailboat cruising along a relatively calm sea. In the very forefront of the painting, we see a crashing surf at the shoreline which is filled with rocks & boulders (especially on the right side of the painting) - the artist also created a lovely moonlight reflection on the waves further out in the painting all of which makes nice depth in the painting.
