Though panned by many contemporary critics, critic John Ruskin commented in 1843 that it was "one of the very grandest statements of sea-motion, mist and light, that has ever been put on canvas".
The painting was also shown in "My Policeman", a movie directed by Michael Grandage starring David Dawson, Emma Corrin and Harry Styles.
