About this work

A large sailing ship lies tilted on rocks along a stormy coastline, its sails torn and rigging tangled as breaking waves surge around its hull. Sailors struggle in a small boat and on the rocks at the lower right, while a second vessel labours in the distance beneath a dark, churning sky.
