About this work
A watercolor drawing in soft grey and blue tones shows towering icebergs rising from rough, churning water. A sailing ship with furled sails and a second vessel appear distantly on the left, and the inscription beneath records the situation of H.M.S. Hecla and Griper, dated July 1819 in the middle of Davis Strait.
