This atmospheric work shows Bounty disappearing into the distance of the Spithead, on her way to Tahitie. Because of the technical difficulty of painting night scenes, the task is usually attempted without great enthusiasm. This painting, in its own mediocre way, reminisces with some of J.M.W.Turner's atmospheric works and shows Bounty under sail and disappearing into the distance. A palette of alizarin reds and cobalt and Prussian blues predominate with touches of four yellows. The rendering of the night sky is mostly by the application of transparent glazes.
