Marine - stormy weather
The overcast sky heralds the coming storm. *Marine – Stormy Weather* reveals Gustave Courbet’s love for this unadorned, authentic natural world. The composition gives prominence to this threatening sky. The sea begins to churn, contrasting with the stillness of the two boats. Courbet, by participating in the Brussels Salon in 1851 and spending time regularly in Belgium in 1857–1858, influenced young Belgian artists such as Louis Artan, encouraging them, in particular, to break free from academic and classical trends.
