Shipping becalmed in the Solent
In this large painting Brooking takes up the naval parades Simon de Vlieger had developed a century before. Across the calm, shallow waters in the foreground showing fishermen following their trade, larger vessels including a three-decker in the centre of the composition lie becalmed with their reflection visible on the surface of the Solent. The banks of the river can be made out in the background. The artist has chosen a summer sky with some clouds.
