Description

Ship in an ocean being tipped over by a wave that stretches the entire width of the canvas. The ship is located on the left and tilting towards the viewer. There appears to be a piece of wood in the center foreground, possibly a broken mast. The moon (in the top center) gives the top half of the picture a flash tone color. It is signed in the lower left corner, "R. R. Roggi '41."
