"Hms Royal Albert Aground Off The Aegean Island Of Zea" is a notable work of art by Sir Oswald Walter Brierly (1817–1894), an English marine painter. This piece specifically depicts the event in which the HMS Royal Albert, a 121-gun screw ship that was one of the largest wooden vessels in the Royal Navy, found herself stranded off the Aegean Island of Zea in 1858.

In this evocative maritime painting, Brierly presents his audience with the scene of the mighty Royal Albert aground in unfamiliar waters, as her crew works strenuously to prevent any further peril. Brierly's artistry, renowned for its attention to detail and accuracy, herewith provides a historical record of this naval incident.

The looming shape of the Royal Albert steals the focus of the painting, with its sails haphazardly dropped, the ship is the very image of a majestic beast brought low. The dramatic sea and sky that dominates the background, replete with brooding clouds, and the distant sight of Zea Island underscore the ominous undertone of the ship's predicament.

Brierly's ability to capture the grandeur and the inherent danger of naval life is demonstrated in this painting. It remains an important artwork within his oeuvre, contributing to our understanding not only of Brierly's artistic capabilities, but also of aspects of 19th-century naval history. It stands as a testament to Brierly’s legacy as a renowned naval artist and war correspondent.
