This synthesis of influences allowed Vernet to develop a distinctly French style of marine painting – one characterized by its atmospheric depth, realistic detail, and emotional resonance. Beyond maritime scenes, Vernet also explored landscapes and hunting subjects, always maintaining a keen eye for detail and an understanding of animal anatomy—a skill honed in his youth.

Despite his prolific output, Pinsel’s life ended relatively early, between September 16, 1761, and October 24, 1762, likely in Buchach.
