About "The Storm on the Sea of Galilee"

"The Storm on the Sea of Galilee" is one of Rembrandt's most famous works, and it is his only piece themed around navigation. The painting depicts the story of Jesus and his disciples encountering a storm on the Sea of Galilee. It uses a vertical composition to vividly present a small boat rocking in the stormy seas and the disciples in a state of panic. Huge waves crash against the boat, and the sails are nearly torn apart by the wind. Some disciples struggle to control the sailboat, others kneel in prayer, while some show expressions of terror. Jesus, however, leans at the stern, his demeanor calm, gazing at the tumultuous sea. Rembrandt masterfully employs chiaroscuro to create a dramatic effect. The stark contrasts of light and dark accentuate the ferocity of the storm and the disciples' fear, enhancing the divinity and majesty of Jesus, symbolizing the light of God illuminating the darkness. "The Storm on the Sea of Galilee" is not only a religious painting but also a masterpiece depicting the relationship between humans and nature. It showcases the power of nature and human vulnerability, conveying the strength of faith and a message of hope. This painting was stolen on March 18, 1990, and remains missing, making it one of the most famous stolen artworks in art history.
