"Rough Seas"
Having put the HMS Resolution to sea from Nootka Sound, Alaska on April 26th, 1778
Captain James Cook encountered a storm that eventually, as he put it in his journal:
"Blew a perfect Hurricane..." He judged that he could no longer run
before the storm and must bring the ships head to Southward under
the foresails and mizzen stay-sails. To add further drama to the situation,
it was about this time that the Resolution sprung a leak.
In this print, Charles has attempted to
portray this perilous period of time when the hardy crew members
are taking in the sails and re-rigging in order to survive the storm.
