Mortara Genova
1948

A black and white illustration depicting a dramatic maritime scene with a large sailing ship trapped in ice. The ship is tilted to one side, suggesting distress. Ice floes surround the vessel, and two small rowboats with figures are visible in the foreground, navigating the icy waters. The sky is filled with dark, swirling clouds, adding to the intensity of the scene. The artist's signature is visible in the lower right corner.
