Paintings depicting sailing ships or boats can be considered part of the genre scene group, that is, the depiction of an episode of everyday life that, apparently, lacks any significant element. In particular, the depiction of simple sailing ships or other vessels, outside the historical context of a naval battle, began in the 17th and 18th centuries, influenced by travel and exploration of new continents.

The style of the painter who created this painting relies on extraordinary technique and dexterity, allowing him to achieve a perfect imitation of his chosen subject. Reality is conveyed in the painting down to the smallest detail, as we can see in the depiction of the ship. The artist also takes particular care in depicting the waves of the sea, and is extraordinary in his depiction of every ripple. The sunlight reflects off the waves, shimmering with reflections and glares. The artist achieves all this with a manner that manages to reproduce every detail in an almost miniature manner, while also employing accentuated pictorial effects to lend greater dynamism to the scene.

From an analysis of the work, we can see that it was created by an essentially figurative painter, endowed with an excellent academic training. His research focused primarily on the theme of the sea and navigation. His works are distinguished by the artist's expressive and lively manner in which he expressively depicts reality.
