About the piece
Created around 1850 by Belgian artist Egide Linnig, this oil on panel work is a masterful example of maritime realism. It captures the technological transition of the era, depicting a paddle wheel steamer equipped with auxiliary sails as it maneuvers through a heavy swell. The composition is defined by its dramatic play of light through the clouds and the meticulous detail in the churning, translucent waves.
