Aivazovsky, known for his exceptional marine art, delivers an explosive spectacle that seizes the viewer's attention with its sheer intensity.
The painting is a tumultuous scene, where the sea and sky are equally embroiled in the violent conflict.

The moon, barely visible through the thick smoke, adds an eerie luminescence to the darkened sky, a stark contrast to the fiery blaze below. The ships, some already succumbing to the flames, others still valiantly fighting, are detailed with meticulous precision, highlighting the artist’s dedication to realism.
Foregrounded is a smaller boat, packed with figures desperate to escape the carnage, their frantic movements a poignant reminder of the human cost of war.
