The present painting of a blustery harbour scene with grey, foreboding clouds coming in from the left, and fisher boats struggling to navigate the choppy waters, is a characteristic example of the seascape paintings that Cornelis Claesz. van Wieringen specialised in. Aside from being the son of a captain, van Wieringen is generally assumed to have been a pupil of Hendrick Vroom (1566–1640), whose work had greatly influenced his own, notably the usage of the same deep greenish-blue tones. He received numerous distinguished commissions from public institutions from the city of Haarlem, where he was also governor of the Haarlem Guild of St Luke. Van Wieringen is widely regarded as one of the foremost early practitioners of Dutch marine painting.
