This painting shows a lone fisherman in a boat with his catch. the boat os on the a grey sea as he tries to return to the boat at the right rear of the painting. There is a fog bank approaching behind the ship in the distance. It must be some distance away as in this view it is small in relation to the fisherman and his catch. There is drama in this picture. Will the fisherman get back to the safety of the boat with his catch, before the fog bank engulfs everything and he could be lost at sea as he will be lost in the fog.
