Storm at Sea is a 1788 oil by Jean-Baptiste Tency, held at Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp.
This painting shows a dramatic sea storm with a ship in the center, its sails torn and mast broken. The ship is being tossed about by large waves, and people are clinging to the wreckage. In the background, there's a rocky coastline with a few buildings and trees. The painting is very detailed, with lots of movement and energy. You can almost feel the wind and water. The colors are dark and moody, which adds to the sense of drama and danger. If you like this painting, you might want to check out the work of artist Jean-Baptiste Tency.
