The Sea

Wreck of the HMS Orpheus
Wreck of the HMS Orpheus
We stumbled upon this painting called Wreck of the HMS Orpheus by Richard Brydges Beechey and were just fascinated by it. Somehow the true spirit of the sea is captured, her power and naked fury in a subtle and sublime way. Man’s struggle with the sea is on full display, something to be respected and honored for all that it is. Our true origin, the beginnings of life as we know it. What a marvel.
