I saw that painting, this is a great replication of it. Love the jagged ice blocks and the tattered sails... :)

my first thought was, looks like a painting of Kaspar David Friedrich. then i saw the picture of Lacoste, a remarkable artist. your picture is mixes from Friedrich, Lacoste and your conception, but excellently made. bravo!!! V

Fantastic composition and atmosphere. The ice blocks are very well done. The torn sails tell us that the ship wrecked some time ago. Vote.
