Incredible, according to Wikipedia this was painted in 1873. Snapshot exposures with cameras wouldn’t be possible for another 5 years. Can you imagine trying to figure out the fine details of what waves look and behave like without having a clear photo or video?
The subtlety of the rainbow is also just fantastic. What a great painting!
