The Icebergs is an 1861 landscape oil painting by American painter Frederic Edwin Church that was inspired by sketches created on an 1859 voyage to the North Atlantic.[1] He was accompanied by his friend, Louis Legrand Noble, who documented the voyage in his book, After Icebergs with a Painter.[1][2] The painting measures at 64.5 × 112.5 in (163.8 × 285.8 cm) and is exhibited at the Dallas Museum of Art, which acquired it in 1979.[3][note 1]
