A thunderous moment captured in oil: a gunboat explodes on the Scheldt River off Antwerp, smoke and fire ripping across a cold winter sky. Painted by Martinus Schouman in 1832 as an oil on panel, this dramatic maritime work depicts the fatal detonation of gunboat No. 2 under the command of Jan van Speyk on February 5, 1831, with the silhouette of Antwerp visible on the horizon. Rich in historical narrative and painterly atmosphere, the piece makes a compelling centerpiece for collectors of naval history or anyone seeking a bold, conversation-starting artwork for a study, living room, or office.
