The Approaching Storm is a 1870 oil by Narcisse Virgilio Díaz, held at Norton Simon Museum.
The painting depicts a landscape with a tree on the right side, its branches stretching upwards. The sky is filled with dark clouds, and the sun shines through a gap, casting a beam of light. In the foreground, rocks and bushes are visible, while the background features trees and a cloudy sky. The painting's use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and atmosphere. The artist's brushstrokes are visible, adding texture to the work. This painting is reminiscent of the work of Narcisse Virgilio Díaz.
