Emerging victorious from a perilous battle at sea only to perish in a storm mere hours later is a most wicked twist of fortune. Such was the fate of many aboard HMS Bellerophon, which had just helped defeat the French and Spanish fleets at Trafalgar. The tempest struck that night and lasted several days.

The above depiction of a vessel in heavy seas is most likely an Aivazovsky work from the latter half of the 19th century. Difficult to confirm given the over 6000 works he produced over his 60 year career – that’s an average of one painting about every four days.
