| Norwegian Patrol (H.M.S. Cossack) by John Steven Dews, signed by the artist, 1979
Stunning signed print from a limited edition of 250 (compromised, see below) by John Steven Dews. During February 1940 H.M.S. Cossack, whilst on patrol off the Norwegian coast, received a report that the German tanker Altmark had been sighted. Held prisoner aboard the Altmark were 299 British Merchant Seamen. H.M.S. Cossack went into action and quickly trapped the Altmark in an ice covered fjord. A boarding party captured the vessel and liberated her prisoners. In April that year she received heavy damage in the Battle at Narvik. She was once again in action when, with other destroyers, she attacked the German battleship Bismark. H.M.S. Cossack was torpedoed and sunk off Gibraltar in 1941. She was a Tribal class destroyer built in 1938 by Vickers Armstrong having an overall length of 379 feet and a displacement of 1870 tons.
John Steven Dews was born in Yorkshire in 1949 and has become one of the country's leading maritime artists with his last oil painting selling for £120,000. His prints are well sought after and avidly collected worldwide. This picture was part of the Amoco Heritage Collection of twelve marine paintings produced in 1979.
