Echoes of a Far-Off Storm is an oil onj canvas landscape painting by the British artist John Brett, from 1890.[1] [2]

The painting was inspired by a trip Brett had made to the Cornish resort of Padstow the previous year. Brett was associated with the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood early in his career.

The painting was displayed at the Royal Academy Exhibition of 1890 held at Burlington House in Piccadilly. [3] Today the painting is part of the collection of the City of London's Guildhall Art Gallery, having been offered by Sir Thomas Lane Devitt in 1918.[4]
