Cunard Oceanline Hamburg New York
Ocean liner cutting through the waves.Bohrdt was a self-taught painter specializing in maritime subjects, and became so good at it that the last German kaiser named him his official art consultant on state trips, and gave him the title of professor. Here, for Cunard, we get a nameless liner in a low-angle frontal view parting the waves at a good clip.
