"L'Incendie du Kent" (The Burning of the Kent) is a historical painting by French marine artist Jean Antoine Théodore Gudin. This artwork, created in 1828, captures a dramatic and tragic event at sea, the fire aboard the British ship Kent in 1825. The Kent, an East Indiaman, was transporting soldiers and their families to India when it caught fire in the Bay of Biscay, leading to a catastrophic event that claimed many lives.

Gudin, known for his marine paintings, was particularly adept at depicting the sea in various states, and in "L'Incendie du Kent," he showcases his skill in portraying the terrifying power of fire as it engulfs a wooden ship. The painting is noted for its dynamic composition, the vivid contrast between the flames and the surrounding water, and the emotional impact of the human struggle for survival in the face of disaster.

The work serves as both a historical document and a piece of Romantic art, reflecting the era's fascination with the sublime and the power of nature over humanity. Gudin's painting is significant in the context of 19th-century French art, as it exemplifies the Romantic movement's themes and the artist's contribution to marine painting. "L'Incendie du Kent" is not only a testament to Gudin's artistic talent but also a poignant reminder of the perils of sea travel in the age of sail.

The painting is part of the collection of the Musée de la Marine in Paris, France, and continues to be an important work for both its artistic merit and its historical representation of a maritime disaster.
