Maritime Art
I am proud to support Maritime Artists from
around the world, including four artists from The Netherlands, Australia, New
Zealand and the United States. Paintings have a
unique texture and life of its own. Obviously, these fine canvases are painted
by men who have a genuine love of Ocean-going liners, cargo ships or tramp
steamers! In the near future, I hope to add further artists to this page thus I
suggest that you return often and see what’s new on the ssMaritime Art
Page!
Remember, if you have a favourite ship you can contact one of these
fine artists (except for the last entry) and commission them to paint the ship
of choice!

Maritime Art by
Dutch Artist Willem Johan Hoendervanger

Here we see a
painting of what was considered the most beautiful ship ever built the SS Nieuw
Amsterdam
Willem has painted many passenger
liners - you can view these on Willem’s site
As a young
artist, Willem Johan Hoendervanger graduated from the Academy of Art
at Breda in the Netherlands in 2005. He said that
“These years at college were very instructive and educational.”
After his graduation he decided to fully commit himself to the field of
maritime art. Apart from other work interests, he paints regularly for (former) seamen, maritime
companies or anyone who has a love of ships and the sea. Having that special
quality and nautical touch, I decided to add him to the ssMaritime Art pages.
Is there a ship
you really love? Why not commission Willem to paint it for you.

Markant Gallery
– Dutch Aritst Frans Romeijnsen

A painting
of the Holland Amerika Lijn
SS Rotterdam & SS Nieuw Amsterdam
Frans Daniel Romeijnsen was
born in Terneuzen, The Netherlands in 1944, and his
father was also an artist. As a child he started to become interested in
drawing. Then, his father decided that Frans was obviously more than interested
in art, thus he took him under his wing and began teaching him various
techniques, pastel, pencil and aquarelle. Later in life, after military service
Frans dedicated himself to painting with oils. Ever since, he has been painting portraits,
landscapes, still life, but mostly sea and harbour scenes. Frans is a member of
the association of the Holland America Line and his paintings of the great
Dutch liners can be found on the websites of the Royal Rotterdam
Lloyd Museum
and the Royal Dutch Steamship Association. In addition to painting Frans
teaches up to 40 students in his Gallery.
Please Note: As the site is in Dutch and could be difficult to
navigate for some, I have placed an Index of pages below with ships from a
variety of companies for you to visit and view. Enjoy the great work of a great
artist!
