Gilman made a number of studies of Halifax Harbour and its shipping. He wrote to a friend, Louis Fergusson, that he was to paint an enormous canvas to commemorate the scene of the great explosion when a French munitions boat had blown up in the harbour with a cargo of 2300 tons of pictic acid, 10 tons of guncotton and 200 tons of TNT, killing hundreds outright and devastating the district of Richmond and damaging the Halifax waterfront.
