Om maleriet

Jacob Jacobs (1812-1879) studied under the painter Ferdinand de Braekeleer in the Antwerp Academy in 1832. He later travelled to Italy, Greece, Russia, Scandinavia, France and Germany and by 1847 he was back in Antwerp where he taught at the Academy in 1843 or 1849. He was awarded in Brussels in 1836, 1842 and 1845, and was appointed 'chevalier de l'ordre de Leopold' for his painting Shipwreck of the 'Floridan' in 1849. He had many pupils among whom Florent Crabeels (1835-1896), Adriaan Joseph Heymans (1839-1921), Isidore Meyers (1836-1917) and Jacques Rosseels (1828-1912).

This painting is a good example of Jacobs' marine paintings, a category in which he soon specialised. The present work, showing a fishing ship on agitated waters in the attempt to enter a harbour, shows reminiscent features of the art of the Golden Age during which marine paintings developed particularly. The dark palette conveys a sense of dramatic atmosphere enhanced by the foam's swirl of the waves.
