The muted palette and knowledge of shipping and sea conditions shown in this painting are typical of Brooking's work. During his short life \(he was just thirty\-six when he died\), Charles Brooking produced a series of paintings which are now considered to be some of the most atmospheric and technically accurate depictions of 18th Century shipping in the genre. It is clear from these works that he had a personal knowledge of seamanship and naval architecture, and is now regarded as one of our greatest marine artists/Our thanks to David Joel author of Charles Brooking 1723\-1759 for his assistance in cataloguing this painting/see illustration | Chorley's | £4,800
