About the piece
Painted in 1836 by Robert Salmon, this oil on panel masterpiece depicts fishermen at work during a moonlit night. The composition balances the dark, heavy masses of coastal rocks with the shimmering, silver reflection of the moon on the water, creating a timeless and grounding sense of maritime peace.
