"Maanlicht" (Moonlight) is an engraving by F.W. Musculus, likely created between 1750 and 1799. The image depicts a tranquil seascape bathed in the soft glow of the moon. Several ships are anchored in the harbor, while small boats with figures row across the water. A rocky cliff with a small building on its summit dominates the background, while a large tree in the foreground frames the scene. This print, measuring 356mm by 306mm, offers a captivating glimpse into the artist's portrayal of a peaceful night scene.
