This masterpiece of Ivan Aivazovsky is the most famous of his seascapes which constitute more than half of his works. This Armenian artist died in 1900 at the age of eighty-three years. This is probably his most Romantic piece. He burst upon the international scene in 1842 and was elected a member of five European Academies. He received the French Legion of Honor and left more than 6000 works by the time of his death.
