Ship Braving the Stormy Sea

More about Ship Braving the Stormy Sea

A wide shot of a medieval ship with two large orange sails and a wooden hull with exquisite golden and blue detailing, including a golden dragonhead figurehead, is cutting through a stormy dark blue sea with white splashes, depicted from a low, dramatic angle. On the ship, a large group of men with dark beards and rugged clothing are cheering with their arms raised. Many men line the side of the ship with outstretched arms, as if reaching out. The men on the right edge of the ship are leaning over. Five men are rowing in the water, only their torsos visible, and the long, thick oars are attached to the side of the ship. The sky above is dark and cloudy, with a sliver of orange sunset visible on the horizon to the right.

Note: This comes from a painting from around the turn of the last century. That one was entitled The Wrath of the Sea God.
