"Een loodsman komt aan boord van een schip" (A Pilot Boards a Ship), is an etching by Dutch artist Joost van Geel. Created after 1666, the print showcases three ships navigating turbulent waters. The detailed depiction of the ships, their rigging, and the choppy waves, characteristic of van Geel's marine art, offers viewers a glimpse into 17th-century Dutch maritime life. The dynamic composition of the ships and the realistic portrayal of the sea create a sense of movement and excitement, engaging the viewer in the scene.
