"Ground Swell" is a notable painting created by the renowned American realist artist Edward Hopper. Completed in 1939, it is an oil on canvas artwork. Hopper's style is characterized by his ability to capture a sense of isolation, introspection, and solitude in his subjects, and "Ground Swell" is no exception.

The painting depicts a group of five individuals on a small sailboat, which is shown bobbing on the choppy waters of the sea. The boat is caught in a moment of dynamic motion, with its sails filled by a strong gust of wind. The people aboard the boat are positioned in a way that suggests their struggle to maintain balance in the face of the powerful swells and gusts of wind.

In the foreground, a woman is seated near the edge of the boat, her back turned to the viewer. Her body language and the tilt of her head imply a contemplative mood, perhaps lost in her own thoughts. Two men are shown standing and bracing themselves against the forces of nature, their hands firmly gripping the rails. One of the men gazes into the distance, while the other looks downward, as if keeping a watchful eye on the water.
