Summary

Description Photographed from a single-camera position, the viewpoint is midships, straight ahead. The ship is running head-on through heavy seas. As the vessel runs into heavy billows, the water breaks in huge volumes over the prow and is dashed into clouds of spray. A monster wave comes along and the lookout disappears, but bobs up in the next moment, and water is seen running from the deck.
Date 1898
