The Trade Deal, Baltimore, West Cork – after Manet – Seascape Oil Painting

• The Trade Deal – after Manet – oil painting by Emily McCormack.
• This painting after Manet, was reimagined to reflect the 1631 Barbary Pirate attack on the Irish village of Baltimore, West Cork. Instead of ‘waiting’ fisherman wives, it’s a trade deal, the ‘sale’ of fisherman wives. The crosses of the sails symbolise future burdens each of them will have to carry.
• Seascape oil painting based on Baltimore, West Cork, Ireland.
• Oil on board.
• 50 x 60cm excluding frame, please contact for price including the frame. Frame can be ordered upon request.

During the workshops here in the art school, we study paintings from other master artists. I create these exclusive artworks to show a student an artist’s style, usually on a one-to-one basis. The unique study I create is available to buy here.
