Original Dimensions: 28" x 44"
Location: The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York
About Artwork: (1859) "A man and his dog sit perched on the shore of Narragansett Bay, Rhode Island, sunlight at their backs as they witness darkening clouds and a thin bolt of lightning warning of the tempest to come. Heade vividly captures the anticipation—in the words of a critic of his day, the “ominous hush”—that prevailed under a blackening sky and the eerily illuminated terrain. This is one of the earliest works in a small series of coastal storm subjects painted by Heade, based on a sketch of an approaching storm he witnessed from Prudence Island around 1858." - (The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York)
