"Gale off Rocky Coast" (1643-1669), by Dutch artist Jan Theunisz. Blanckerhoff, depicts a dramatic seascape with two ships caught in a fierce storm. The artist, known for his maritime paintings, captures the intensity of the weather with swirling clouds and tumultuous waves. The dark palette and dramatic composition evoke a sense of foreboding, emphasizing the perilous nature of the sea. This painting, now housed at the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst, exemplifies Blanckerhoff's mastery of depicting the power and unpredictability of the natural world.
