Jeanne Françoise Ozanne's 1771 etching, "Udsigt over Dieppe havn (Vue prise dans le port de Dieppe)", depicts the harbor of Dieppe, France. The print showcases Ozanne's talent for capturing the details of the harbor's architecture and the bustling activity of the ships and people. The composition features a panoramic view of the harbor, with the tall cliffs of the French coast in the background. The foreground is filled with numerous boats and figures, suggesting a vibrant maritime life. The scene captures the daily life of a busy harbor, as people go about their tasks and ships prepare to set sail. This work is an example of the 18th-century Rococo style, characterized by delicate lines, graceful curves, and a focus on depicting everyday scenes.
