Bomschuit bij vloed op strand 1885 - 1931

"Bomschuit bij vloed op strand" (1885-1931), is a black and white etching by Frederika Henriëtte Broeksmit (1875-1945), depicting a sailing vessel, potentially a bomschuit (a type of Dutch fishing boat), on a beach at high tide. The work, a testament to Broeksmit's talent for marine art, showcases the artist's keen eye for detail, evident in the delicate lines that define the ship's rigging, the rippling waves, and the cloudy sky. This etching is characteristic of Broeksmit's style, combining realism with an expressive approach to line, giving life to a seemingly simple yet evocative scene.
