Whenever I see an Ivan Aivazovski painting the sea monster in me goes absolutely feral

I see this and I've never wanted to sink a ship so much in my life I'm biting through wood as we speak

God if I saw this in person I'd straight up start slithering. Start writhing

The way he just *clenches fist* makes water light up from the inside. Ugh, I once zoned out in front of one of his larger paintings in a gallery and came to, like, twenty minutes later, smelling saltwater and tasting driftwood.

This is his largest painting ever. It is 2,8×4,2 meters large. That is about 9'3"×14'1". It took him ten days to paint. This is a guy who painted normal-sized paintings in an hour, two, tops, according to contemporaries.

He was utterly unique.
