About the piece
Painted in 1866 by Charles-François Daubigny, this work exemplifies the atmospheric realism of the Barbizon school. The composition features a grand tall ship in silhouette against a heavy, light-streaked sky, while the shimmering water of the Thames at Erith reflects the overcast day, creating a sense of quiet, coastal life.
