"Old Hastings, Stormbound" is a notable work by Albert Goodwin (1845–1932), a distinguished English landscape painter and illustrator, known for his captivating visions of landscapes, blending realism with imaginative elements. Born in Maidstone, Kent, Goodwin was a protégé of the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, particularly influenced by John Ruskin, who championed his work and encouraged his development as an artist. Goodwin's oeuvre is characterized by its detailed precision, vibrant use of color, and often, a sense of the sublime within the natural world.

"Old Hastings, Stormbound" exemplifies Goodwin's mastery in capturing the dramatic interplay of light and atmosphere, depicting the historical town of Hastings under the siege of a tempestuous storm.

This piece, like many of Goodwin's works, transcends mere representation, inviting viewers into a meticulously crafted vision where the forces of nature and history converge.

Throughout his career, Goodwin traveled extensively, drawing inspiration from the diverse landscapes of the British Isles, Europe, the Middle East, and North America. His travels informed his artistic practice, enriching his palette and broadening his thematic scope to include not only natural landscapes but also historical and biblical scenes. "Old Hastings, Stormbound" reflects Goodwin's enduring interest in the British landscape and its historical narratives, capturing the essence of Hastings – a town steeped in the history of medieval England and the famous site of the Battle of Hastings in 1066.

Albert Goodwin's contributions to the landscape genre were recognized in his lifetime, and he was elected as a member of the Royal Watercolour Society in 1876. His works are held in significant public and private collections worldwide, including the Victoria and Albert Museum and the Tate Gallery in London.
