Willem van de Velde I, a renowned Dutch painter of marine subjects, created this detailed pencil drawing of a Dutch ship’s ornamental prow seen from the starboard quarter. The artist's depiction of the ship's intricate carvings and the subtle shading used to render the hull and waterline create a sense of realism and precision. This artwork highlights Van de Velde I's mastery in capturing the elegance and detail of Dutch naval vessels, reflecting the maritime prowess of the Dutch Golden Age.
