A First Rate Man-of-War Driven onto a Reef of Rocks, Floundering in a Gale is a distinguished maritime painting by the British artist George Philip Reinagle (1802–1835). This work, executed in the early 19th century, vividly captures the dramatic and perilous moment of a first-rate man-of-war, a term denoting the largest class of warships at the time, as it is besieged by the overwhelming forces of nature, struggling against a violent gale and treacherous rocks. Reinagle, known for his adept skill in marine art, employs meticulous detail and dynamic composition to convey the intensity and immediacy of the scene, reflecting the Romantic era's fascination with the sublime and the mighty power of the natural world over humanity.

The painting stands as a testament to Reinagle's mastery in depicting maritime subjects, a genre that gained significant popularity in Britain during the 18th and 19th centuries, amidst the country's naval expansion and exploration. Through his work, Reinagle not only showcases his technical prowess but also evokes the viewer's emotional response to the depicted ship's plight, highlighting themes of vulnerability, survival, and the unpredictable power of the sea. A First Rate Man-of-War Driven onto a Reef of Rocks, Floundering in a Gale is celebrated for its historical value, artistic merit, and as an exemplar of the marine genre in British art history, contributing to our understanding of the cultural and historical context of the period in which it was created.
