The painting is rendered in an expressive, almost abstract style, focusing on strong contrasts and bold, fluid lines that enhance the dramatic nature of the scene.At the center of the composition is a steamship making its way through the sea. The ship's smokestack and the dark hull are prominent, indicating the power and industrial strength of the vessel. The sea around the ship is depicted with heavy, swirling lines, illustrating the rough and churning water that the ship contends with. These waves, vigorously stylized, convey a sense of movement and intensity.Above the ship, the sky is filled with curved, expressive strokes that mimic the tumultuous sea below, creating a unified and impactful visual experience. The bold use of black ink highlights the ship and waves, making them stand out sharply against the lighter background.Leo Gestel's technique and style in this painting emphasize the energy of the sea and the steadfastness of the ship against natural forces. The artwork invites viewers to feel the power of nature and the resilience of human engineering.

Leo Gestel (1881–1941) was a Dutch visual artist, painter, and illustrator. His father was a director of an art school and his uncle painted with the famous Vincent van Gogh. He came across the Parisian avant-garde movement and developed his eclectic style through experimentation with various art forms including cubism, expressionism, futurism, and post-impressionism. He is considered one of the leading Dutch modernism artists, along with Piet Mondrian. The majority of Gestel’s work was lost in a fire.
