"A Stormy Night" is an 1892 oil painting by Alfred Stevens (1817-1875), depicting a dramatic seascape. The painting showcases a stormy sea, with crashing waves and dark, brooding skies. A solitary lighthouse stands on a rocky outcropping, offering a beacon of hope in the midst of the tempest. The use of loose brushstrokes and a limited color palette enhances the painting's sense of movement and atmospheric depth. The painting is a testament to Stevens’ skill in capturing the raw power and beauty of nature.
