A dramatic pastel by Ralph Leaper depicting a square-rigger battling heavy seas during a storm. The energy of the composition and the handling of movement set this work apart from calmer nautical scenes.
Double mounted and framed in a mixed gilt and wood frame, with an artist’s description affixed to the reverse.
