J.F. Clemens's "Titelvignet til et søkort: "Pass Kaart over Kattegatet" (Title Vignette for a Nautical Chart: "Passage Chart of the Kattegat"), created in 1799, is a pencil drawing of a decorative title vignette. The vignette depicts figures representing the sea, likely sea deities, with a central sunburst symbol, in a stylized design. The intricate details showcase Clemens's skillful draughtsmanship, with delicate lines forming the figures, ships, and foliage. This artwork serves as a decorative element for a nautical chart, highlighting the importance of cartography in the late 18th century.
