Created in 1850, this work exemplifies Church's early mastery of the landscape genre and his particular interest in capturing the raw beauty of the American Northeast. The painting depicts the rugged coastline of Mount Desert Island in Maine, a locale that attracted many artists of the Hudson River School, with whom Church is closely associated.

The work is characterized by its dynamic representation of the waves crashing against the rocky shore, a testament to Church's skill in rendering the interplay of light, water, and stone. The painting's composition, with its emphasis on the untamed sea and the play of light across the surf, reflects the transcendentalist belief in nature as a manifestation of the divine, a theme commonly explored by artists of the Hudson River School.

Church's meticulous technique and his use of luminous colors contribute to the painting's evocative quality, inviting viewers to contemplate the sublime forces of nature. "Rough Surf, Mount Desert Island" not only captures a specific location with geological accuracy but also conveys the emotional and spiritual experience of the American wilderness, a hallmark of Church's oeuvre.
