Storm 

This dramatic seascape depicts a stormy scene with a ship wrecked on the rocks and people struggling in a small boat. The painting is characteristic of the work of Claude-Joseph Vernet, a French painter known for his depictions of coastal scenes and maritime subjects. Vernet's works are often characterized by their realistic portrayal of nature and their use of dramatic light and shadow. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the rendering of the crashing waves, the rocky coastline, and the figures in the foreground. Vernet's paintings are often viewed as a celebration of the power and beauty of the sea, while also conveying a sense of danger and the precariousness of human life.
