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. He was accompanied by his friend, Louis Legrand Noble, who documented the voyage in his book, After Icebergs with a Painter. 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.
