IN THE MANNER OF NICHOLAS POCOCK (UNITED KINGDOM, 1740-1821), THE BATTLE OF CAPE ST. VINCENT, FEBRUARY 14, 1797., OIL ON CANVAS, 24" X 42". FRAMED 27" X 45.25".IN THE MANNER OF NICHOLAS POCOCK, United Kingdom, 1740-1821, The Battle of Cape St. Vincent, February 14, 1797. Frame inscribed "Battle of St. Vincent 1797 J. M. W. Turner R.A.". This work is not by J.W.M. Turner and is not listed in his catalogue raisonné. It is unclear why the frame is marked as such, other than the obvious attempt to add value to the work. However, the work is skillfully painted and the attribution is based on the sea, sky and atmosphere executed in the work. Dimensions: Oil on canvas, 24" x 42". Framed 27" x 45.25". Provenance: The Battle of Cape St. Vincent was one of the opening battles of the Anglo-Spanish War (1796–1808), as part of the French Revolutionary Wars, where a British fleet under Admiral Sir John Jervis defeated a greatly superior Spanish fleet under Admiral Don José de Córdoba y Ramos near Cape St. Vincent, Portugal.
