About this work

A dramatic breaking wave curls across the sheet in layered brown ink wash, with white highlights of sea foam at its crest against a dark, overcast sky. The handwritten inscription "Ma destinée" and the date 1857 appear in the lower part of the composition, attributed to Victor Hugo and held by the Maisons de Victor Hugo Paris-Guernesey.
