Proverbs 4:7
“Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.”
 
 

 
 
 Northeaster is one of several paintings on marine subjects by the late-19th-century American painter Winslow Homer. Like The Fog Warning and Breezing Up, he created it during his time in Maine. It is on display in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. Viewers are presented a struggle of elements between the sea and the rocky shore. Winslow Homer excelled in painting landscape paintings that depicted seascapes and mountain scenery.

"And thereby hangs a tale."~~~SHAKESPEARE: The Taming of the Shrew. Act IV, Scene 1. 



The phrase means that there is a backstory, a series of events, or a narrative that explains the current situation or statement. It's a way of suggesting that the tale or explanation is worth telling and may be intriguing or revealing.
