Bronze Age Gold from Wales

Unsigned and undated. Framed.

This picture was painted sometime between 1916 and 1918 when the Normandier was owned by Brys & Gylsen of London. Originally, however, she had been built in 1902 by Richardson, Duck & Co. of Stockton-on-Tees as Northam for W.J. Tatem of Cardiff. Having changed hands many times, she was eventually broken up in Italy in 1931.

Paentiwyd y llong yma rhwybryd rhwng 1916 a 1918 pan oedd y Normandier yn eiddo i gwmni Brys & Gylsen, Llundain. Eithr yn wreiddiol fe'i hadeiladwyn gan gwmni Richardson. Duck o Stockton-on-Tees ym 1902 i W.J. Tatem, Caerdydd, gan ddwyn yr enw Northam ar y pryd. Wedi newid dwylo llawer o weithiau, fe'i sgrapiwyd yn yr Eidal ym 1931.
