Sejlene i smult vand 1849

"Sejlene i smult vand" (Sailing in Calm Water), created in 1849 by Danish artist Vilhelm Kyhn, depicts a serene seascape with two ships sailing peacefully under a cloudy sky. The etching, housed at the Statens Museum for Kunst, showcases Kyhn's skill in capturing the tranquility of the sea and the delicate details of the ships. The composition, with its focus on the vessels and the expansive horizon, is characteristic of Kyhn's maritime artwork.
