Storm-Tossed Frigate c. mid 19th century

"Storm-Tossed Frigate" is a mid-19th century oil painting by Thomas Chambers depicting a ship battling a raging sea. The ship, with its tattered sail billowing in the wind, is dwarfed by the massive waves that surround it. The stormy scene is illuminated by a pale moon peeking through a dark, cloudy sky. Chambers, known for his maritime paintings, captures the raw power of nature and the fragility of man in this dramatic portrayal.
