Description
The Christine was built by Burmeister & Wain in Copenhagen for Det Danske Petroleums-Aktieselskab in Copenhagen. She was launched in September 1890 (Yard no. 162) and delivered the following month. She was an early example of a tanker. In 1901 she was sold to Anglo-American Oil Co. Ltd., London and became the Tioga. In 1910 she was sold to Soc. Ballenera Christensen y Cia., Corral, Chile and became a floating whale factory. Wrecked and lost in February 1913 at Coronation Island in the South Orkney Islands near the Antarctic.

Jacobsen painted the Christine again in 1894, this time in foul weather, see "other versions".

(Reusing this file)
This is a faithful photographic reproduction of a two-dimensional, public domain work of art. The work of art itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

The author died in 1921, so this work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 100 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

The official position taken by the Wikimedia Foundation is that "faithful reproductions of two-dimensional public domain works of art are public domain".
This photographic reproduction is therefore also considered to be in the public domain in the United States. In other jurisdictions, re-use of this content may be restricted; see Reuse of PD-Art photographs for details.
