EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a miniature portrait of Captain John Coxon, painted by an unknown artist in the 18th century. The oval-shaped painting captures the head and shoulders of this distinguished man, adorned with a wig and cravat. His grey hair adds to his air of wisdom and experience. Captain John Coxon was not just any ordinary captain; he commanded the East Indiaman ship called the Grosvenor, which tragically sank in August 1782. This miniature portrait serves as a poignant reminder of his role as a sea captain, sailor, and mariner during that time. The fine details captured in this artwork transport us back to the 18th century when English maritime adventures were at their peak. It offers a glimpse into the life of Captain Coxon and his connection to Germany, possibly indicating his origins or ties to German culture. Photographed by Derek Bayes with utmost precision, this image preserves every brushstroke and nuance of the original painting. Its historical significance is undeniable as it represents both European history and maritime exploration. As we admire this remarkable piece from Fine Art Finder's collection, let us appreciate Captain John Coxon's contribution to seafaring history while also acknowledging Derek Bayes' expertise in capturing its essence through photography.
