Description: | The hulk of a ship in trouble dominates the composition, its masts snapped and useless. The great vessel and its crew are defenceless in the face of the powerful storm. Lifeboats have come to the rescue and to the right tiny figures are being lowered by rope into a lifeboat. Although this picture has long been attributed to Barend Cornelis Koekkoek, it has affinities with the compositions of his brother Hermanus, who specialised in marine painting. | Subjects: | marine; figure | Source: | Vads | Creator: | Artist: Koekkoek, Hermanus, the Elder (Dutch painter, 1815-1882) Æ Attributed to Previously attributed to Koekkoek, Barend Cornelis (Dutch artist, 1803-1862) Previously attributed to Koekkoek, Barend Cornelis (Dutch artist, 1803-1862) | Identifier: | http://www.vads.ac.uk/large.php?uid=8892... | Go to resource |
