Launched as the SS America, the largest, fastest and most opulent Transatlantic liner of her time, she now rests on a remote beach on the island of Fuerteventura.
A subject for several of my paintings, this work evolved from sketches and photographs taken at the site.
Exhibited at the Ferens Art Gallery 2003.
