EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Coming Squall (Nahant Beach with a Summer Shower)" captures the essence of a dramatic moment in nature. Painted by Thomas Doughty in 1835, this oil on canvas mounted on cradled panel artwork is housed at The Art Institute of Chicago. In this stunning piece, Doughty skillfully portrays the power and beauty of an approaching storm. The dark clouds loom ominously overhead, contrasting with the bright light that still illuminates parts of Nahant Beach. A summer shower is imminent as raindrops begin to fall, creating ripples on the calm sea below. Amidst this atmospheric scene, a sailing boat gracefully glides through the waves, navigating its way towards safety before the squall hits. This small vessel serves as a reminder of human vulnerability against nature's forces. Doughty's attention to detail is evident in his depiction of each element: from the texture and movement of the waves to the play between light and shadow across both land and sky. His mastery brings forth an emotional response within viewers as they witness nature's raw power unfold before their eyes. This painting not only showcases Doughty's artistic talent but also highlights his fascination with meteorology and science during that era. It stands as a testament to his ability to capture fleeting moments in time while inviting us to contemplate our place within the vastness of nature.
