Slavers throwing overboard the Dead and Dying - Typhon coming on ("The Slave Ship") 1840; Oil on canvas, 90.8 x 122.6 cm; Museum of Fine Arts, Boston
William Turner painted many famous landscape paintings over the course of his career, but none so evocative or politically-charged as his Slave Ship. The painting depicts a slave ship sinking in a storm, and the passengers drowning in the choppy waters. He painted the work with the abolitionist campaign in mind. [1]
