Steam Ship SS RELIANCE ex. Johann Heinrich Burchard (2023) Картина - Volodymyr Glukhomanyuk

Ocean liners have a special status among the types of maritime transport, they have an individuality. Nothing captures the imagination more than spectacular 20th-century ocean liners. ocean liners were a vehicle for moving cargo, passengers, but now they have become manifestations of national pride. The captivating word "liner" began to personify luxury, large size and unimaginable technological marvel.
In my new painting series Ocean Liners Fine Art, I paid tribute to the exquisite old liners, and also offer history buffs and maritime art lovers an artistic oil painting of “your” ship. My painting is the art of action, love and passion. When, standing on the pier, you look up at these huge black or white hulls, dotted with portholes, you dream of only one thing - to board!
SS Reliance was one of a pair of transatlantic steam ocean liners that were launched in 1914 in Germany for the Hamburg America Line (HAPAG), sold to a Dutch shipping line in 1916, and seized by the United States as World War I reparations in 1922. United American Lines (UAL) operated her until 1926, when HAPAG bought her back.
Reliance was launched as Johann Heinrich Burchard. Her Dutch operator renamed her Limburgia. UAL renamed her Reliance. Her sister ship was Resolute.
A fire gutted Reliance in 1938, and her wreck was scrapped in 1941.
Joh. C. Tecklenborg built the ship at Geestemünde in Bremerhaven. Elizabeth Burchard launched her on 10 February 1914, naming her after her father Johann Heinrich Burchard (1852–1912), a former Mayor of Hamburg.[1] AG Weser built her sister ship in Bremen, launching her as William O'Swald on 30 March 1914.
Johann Heinrich Burchard was completed and delivered to HAPAG on 20 November 1915. Because of the First World War, HAPAG immediately laid her up.
JH Burchard had three funnels and two masts.[1] Her registered length was 590.4 ft (180.0 m), her beam was 80.5 ft (24.5 m) and her depth was 39.7 ft (12.1 m). As built, she had capacity for 2,316 passengers: 315 first class, 301 second class, 850 third class and 850 steerages.

JH Burchard had three screws. A pair of four-cylinder triple-expansion steam engines drove her port and starboard screws. Exhaust steam from their low-pressure cylinders powered a low-pressure steam turbine that drove her middle screw. Between them the three engines gave her a speed of 17 knots (31 km/h).
In addition, I confirm my readiness to paint an oil painting for you to order. 2/3 of my works are custom oil paintings with indispensable positive feedback. I will post the details in my response to your request.
