About the piece
Painted around 1840, 'Squally Weather' exemplifies J.M.W. Turner’s late style, where physical form dissolves into a sublime study of light and atmosphere. The work depicts a turbulent sea near the Nore anchorage, with a sailing vessel barely discernible through the salt spray and heavy mist, creating a sense of ethereal movement and timeless drama.
