Framed Historical Photograph of the Ship Glanesslin

This item is a framed monochrome historical photograph depicting the wreck of the three-masted sailing ship 'Glanesslin' against a rocky coastline. The photograph shows the vessel with its sails torn and hanging in disarray after it ran aground at Neahkahnie Mountain on the Oregon coast in 1913. The image contains handwritten white text in the bottom right corner identifying the ship as 'GLANESSLIN' and the location as 'NEAH-KAH-NIE'. The print is set within a multi-layered matting: a wider cream-colored outer mat and a thin dark green inner reveal. It is housed in a contemporary light oak-stained wooden frame with a visible natural grain pattern and mitered corners. The photograph appears to be a later reproduction or a well-preserved modern print related to Pacific Northwest maritime history. The condition of the frame and matting appears excellent with no visible scuffs or fading, while the image itself retains sharp contrast and clear detail of the nautical rigging and coastal surf. The style of the wood frame suggests a mid-to-late 20th-century assembly. This piece serves as a significant photographic record of maritime accidents in the early 20th century.
