"Monhegan Surf" is a notable painting by the American artist Frederick Judd Waugh (1861–1940), who is renowned for his marine landscapes. This particular work captures the dynamic and powerful essence of the sea, a subject that Waugh was deeply passionate about and to which he dedicated much of his artistic career. The painting is a testament to Waugh's skill in depicting the ocean's movement and his ability to convey its vastness and energy on canvas.

The painting's title refers to Monhegan Island, a small, rocky island ten miles off the coast of Maine, which has been a popular retreat for artists since the late 19th century. Monhegan Island's rugged coastline, with its dramatic surf and clear light, has inspired many artists, and Waugh was no exception. In "Monhegan Surf," Waugh's brushwork captures the tumultuous waves crashing against the rocks, effectively conveying the sound, spray, and force of the sea.

Frederick Judd Waugh was a member of the National Academy of Design and the American Watercolor Society. His mastery of marine painting was influenced by his time living on the Channel Islands and his extensive travels at sea. "Monhegan Surf" is characteristic of his mature style, which often featured a palette of deep blues and greens, and a focus on the interplay of light and shadow.

While the exact date of "Monhegan Surf" is not specified, it is likely from Waugh's later period, when he had fully developed his technique and had become celebrated for his seascapes. The painting is part of a larger body of work that reflects Waugh's enduring fascination with the Atlantic Ocean and its coastal landscapes.

"Monhegan Surf" is held in high regard for its artistic merit and is considered an important work within Frederick Judd Waugh's oeuvre. It continues to be studied and appreciated for its contribution to American landscape painting and for its evocative portrayal of the sea's perpetual motion.
