Holman’s meticulous attention to detail is evident in the depiction of the ships, which are shown battling against a stiff breeze. The artist’s use of light and shadow, combined with his adept handling of the turbulent sea, creates a vivid sense of movement and urgency. The composition is balanced yet dynamic, with the ships positioned in a way that guides the viewer’s eye across the canvas, from the churning waves in the foreground to the distant horizon.
