This painting shows a stormy sea with big waves and a cloudy sky. There are ruins of a building on a cliff to the right, and three people in white robes sitting on rocks in the foreground. They seem to be talking or pointing at something. The painting is done in dark colors, which makes the white robes and the foamy waves stand out. The artist used strong brushstrokes to show the movement of the waves and the wind. The painting is called "Landscape with Stormy Sea" and is held at the National Museum of Western Art.
