NEAPOLITAN SCHOOL, 20TH CENTURY The P&O Passenger/Cargo Steam Ship ‘Pekin’ underway Gouache 15 x 23¾in. (38 x 60.5cm.)


Built by Palmers of Jarrow and launched in 1887 as the Locksley Hall for the Sun Shipping Co., she was a classic passenger/cargo liner of her day. Registered at 3,957 gross tons and measuring 380 feet with a 45 foot beam, her triple-expansion engines produced 3,000psi giving a very creditable 15.5 knots service speed. Purchased and used by P&O between 1899-1906, she was renamed Pekin thus providing a fairly tight time-frame for this picture. Subsequently sold in 1906 (Shah Nawaz) and 1909 (Namji), she was broken up in Bombay in 1911.
