"Maart" is an etching by Simon Fokke, a Dutch artist known for his maritime scenes. Created between 1722 and 1784, this print depicts a coastal landscape featuring a towering structure on the right, a sailboat in the foreground, and a small, distant vessel in the background. The use of hatching and cross-hatching in the engraving contributes to the sense of depth and detail, as seen in the textured clouds and the rhythmic lines of the water. The overall composition is both realistic and suggestive of a peaceful and tranquil scene. This etching can be found at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
