Figuren met vier zijden boven zeelieden bij hun schepen 1669

This etching by Sébastien Leclerc I, titled "Figuren met vier zijden boven zeelieden bij hun schepen," (Figures with Four Sides above Sailors by their Ships) was created in 1669. This work is a typical example of Leclerc's expertise in geometric designs and figures, a hallmark of his style. The image features various geometric shapes, including squares, diamonds, and parallelograms, positioned within a decorative frame. These geometric shapes are paired with a scene of sailors at a harbor, representing the practical application of geometry in daily life. The etching, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, measures 91 mm in height and 62 mm in width.
