Description
English: The experts at Bruun Rasmussen used the title Marine med dampdrevet sejlskib ("A sailship with steam engine") for this painting. They might have been a bit more specific, because this is in fact the steamship Horsa, built in Renfrew, Scotland in 1868 for Det jydsk-engelske Dampskibsselskab ("The Jutland-England steamship Company") in Aarhus, Denmark. Blache made a drawing of the Horsa in Aarhus in September 1868 (link to the drawing at Museet for Søfart mfs.dk) and the following year he made this painting. Horsa had a short career, foundering in the North Sea in October 1869.
Dansk: Eksperterne hos Bruun Rasmussen har brugt titlen Marine med dampdrevet sejlskib til dette maleri. Det kan undre, at de ikke har været mere specifikke, for der er tale om dampskibet Horsa, bygget i Skotland i 1868 til Det jydsk-engelske Dampskibsselskab i Aarhus. Blache tegnede Horsa i Aarhus i september 1868 (se tegning på Museet for Søfart her mfs.dk) og udførte året efter dette maleri. Horsa fik i øvrigt en kort karriere, idet det forliste i Nordsøen i oktober 1869.

The author died in 1920, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.
