"Before the Storm" is a captivating marine landscape painting by the renowned Russian-Armenian artist Ivan Konstantinovich Aivazovsky, created in 1888. Aivazovsky, famed for his seascapes, painted many variations of marine and coastal scenes throughout his career, with " the Storm" being one of his notable works.

The painting presents a dramatic representation of the anticipatory tension evident in a seascape scene just before a storm. The skillful application of light and shadow, a hallmark of Aivazovsky's art, beautifully stirs a sense of tranquility combined with foreboding. In the painting, the sea is depicted in a state of ominous calmness, with darkening sky indicating the approach of a storm. The rendering of the sky is particularly striking, demonstrating Aivazovsky’s mastery of capturing different atmospheric conditions.

"Before the Storm" remains an excellent example of Aivazovsky's ability to invoke both serenity and tension, and to captivate the viewer with the undeniable beauty of nature's capricious moods. This work demonstrates the artist's precise understanding of nature and accentuates his commitment to portray sea life with emotional depth and realism.

The painting is currently housed at the Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow, Russia – showcasing not only Aivazovsky's individual talent, but also the broader tradition of maritime painting within the Russian art historical context.
