Storm on the Sea ☵ Rembrandt ☳ Canvas
Christ in the Storm on the Sea of Galilee (1633) by Rembrandt van Rijn is among the largest and earliest of his works, and his only seascape. It represents the biblical event in which Jesus calmed the storm on the Sea of Galilee, as described in the fourth chapter of the Gospel of Mark. It depicts Christ's disciples struggling against a heavy storm as a huge wave tosses the boat and rips the sail. Christ, depicted on the right, remains calm. One disciple is seen vomiting over the side, another is looking directly at the viewer (a self-portrait of the artist). The painting was displayed at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston before being stolen in 1990. It remains missing.

Stretched canvas art is created from a giclée print on canvas (instead of paper), and like a traditional painting, the canvas is hand-stretched over a solid wood frame. It can be mounted in a float frame, or displayed on its own. The sides of the canvas are finished in a solid color that complements the artwork, creating a modern masterpiece ready to hang on your wall, without a frame.
