"A very fine specimen of marine painting. He had an enlarged and comprehensive genius, a lively, fertile, and poetic imagination. He studied nature with a sagacious attention and exquisite judgment, and always chose to represent nature in her utmost grandeur, and magnificence; for every tree, rock, vessel, situation, or even cloud, that enters his compositions, mani- fests such an elevation of thought, as extorts our admiration. he composed all his subjects in a grand taste, and was singularly correct in his designs, with that spirit and freedom of pencil that very few have equalled. Painted by Salvator Rosa, who was born at Naples, 1614, died 1673." [P. 14.]
