Kleine zeilschepen op de kant bij maanlicht 1862 - 1901

Jules Guiette’s “Kleine zeilschepen op de kant bij maanlicht” (1862-1901) is a detailed etching that depicts a serene nighttime scene. The artwork features three sailboats moored at a riverbank, with a large full moon illuminating the sky. The boats are partially submerged in the water, suggesting a low tide or a calm setting. The trees lining the shore create a sense of depth and tranquility, while the soft tones of the etching evoke a sense of peaceful solitude. This artwork is a testament to Guiette's skill in capturing the beauty of nature, particularly in the stillness of a moonlit night.
