Hastings

Robert Wallis 1794 - 1878

Summary

Several boats with both oars and small masts sail between stormy waves crested with white in the foreground, next to a buoy. Most of them have their sails furled and are carrying numerous figures. To the right midground there is a three masted ship. Behind them, a coastal town can be seen at the base of the hills in the background. The scene takes place under a cloudy sky.
