6. Synthesis 1814-19
187 - Study of a Ship in a Violent Storm

A preparatory study for the watercolour of about 1818 ‘Loss of a Man o'War', on the art market in London in 1974, which, as Turner's inscription indicates, was in Fawkes' collection, perhaps having been painted as a companion to 'A First-Rater taking in Stores', No.194. The MS comment was perhaps added after Fawkes death in 1825.
