"Turfschip" is a graphite drawing by Johan Conrad Greive, depicting a Dutch barge, or turfschip, in a calm harbor setting. The artist's detailed rendering of the ship, with its sails billowing in the wind, captures the essence of traditional Dutch maritime life. This work, dating back to c. 1860, is part of the Rijksmuseum's collection and exemplifies Greive's skill in depicting the maritime world of 19th century Holland.
