Original artwork description:

Enter the epic world of maritime heritage with FEARLESS, a stunning large-scale oil painting that pays tribute to the indomitable spirit of the USS TEXAS. Against the background of a gloomy, leaden sky, the impressive silhouette of a battleship is revealed. Its log superstructure and majestic hull, armored along the waterline, are a testament to resilience and faith. The contrasting border of light and shadow, starting from the main caliber towers and ending its path at the top of the ship’s main mast, emphasizes the single monolith of fortitude, the fearlessness of a dreadnought with more than a century of service to the United States of America.
The foreground shows a port tug in motion, pushing a huge mass of sea water in front of it. An indispensable assistant to giant steel ships in the port. The bright red hull of the cabin with the sunlight falling on it emphasizes its significance. A little time will pass, and he will approach TEXAS, accept the towing lines through the fairleads and, with filigree precision, install the battleship to the quay wall.
