Painting, oil painting, The Packet Boat Cumberland; A
Storm on the Firth, Solway Firth off Cumberland, by Joseph
Heard, about 1840.
A packet boat is tossed upon a stormy sea, its sails furled.
The silvery glow of a full moon illuminates the troughs of
the waves. Part of the boat's cargo of sacks has been swept
overboard and floats beside and behind it.
