About MeTypical of George Wiseman's contemporary work in this portrait of the 'Ortolan' which was built by Lewis in 1964 for the General Steam Navigation Company of London. Mr Wiseman painted the vessel during the year of its build and would have been assisted by ship drawings as well as sight of the ship during its construction and fitting out.
