Vissers en vissersboten op het strand bij Scheveningen 1760

"Vissers en vissersboten op het strand bij Scheveningen" (Fishermen and fishing boats on the beach at Scheveningen) is a 1760 etching by Dutch artist Leendert Brasser. The image depicts a bustling scene of activity on the Scheveningen beach. Numerous figures are depicted, likely fishermen, going about their daily work while boats are docked on the shore. The composition is balanced by the positioning of the church on the left and the ships on the right, the detail in the foreground and the open sky in the distance. This etching, now in the Rijksmuseum, captures a slice of life in 18th-century Scheveningen, highlighting the importance of the fishing industry to the Dutch economy.
