About the piece
Painted in 1865, this masterwork by Johan Jongkind depicts sailing vessels on a choppy sea as a storm brews overhead. Known as a precursor to Impressionism, Jongkind’s technique is evident in the energetic brushwork of the churning waves and the luminous, moody treatment of the clouds, making it a powerful piece of classic marine art.
