This drawing by Dutch artist Leendert de Koningh, titled "Am Strand liegen viele Schiffe, ein Schiffskapitän in Uniform geht nach links mit mehreren Personen und einem Hund" (Many ships lie on the beach, a ship's captain in uniform walks to the left with several people and a dog), depicts a bustling scene of maritime activity. The composition highlights the relationship between humans and the sea through a focus on the ships and their crews. De Koningh, who was known for his depictions of coastal life, uses muted tones and a hazy atmosphere to create a realistic portrayal of the scene. The drawing's overall composition and subject matter, common in Dutch art, reflect the country's maritime history and reliance on trade.
