About this work

This painting, Midday: A Ship Offshore, foundering in a Storm, is attributed to Joseph Vernet and dated 1751. It shows a three-masted ship listing heavily in rough surf while men on a rocky shore struggle with ropes and a small boat, under a dark, broken sky with a shaft of light. A rocky headland and a fortified building with a tower sit along the coast in the distance.
