Hi, I recently discovered a framed print of the painting above. It's signed at the bottom by Felix Luckner. In the top left hand corner in the same handwriting is this odd message: "Don't give up this ship." I have no idea..... It belonged to my husband's mother, who passed away in 2013 at the age of 101. Her husband's family was German, and her husband Charles, died very young. I have no clue what their connection was to the Luckner's.
