Driemaster met de wind in de zeilen 1789

Gerrit Groenewegen's 1789 etching, *Driemaster met de wind in de zeilen*, depicts a three-masted ship with its sails full of wind, captured in a moment of motion. The detailed rendering of the ship's rigging and the choppy water below creates a sense of realism, showcasing Groenewegen's mastery of maritime art. This small-scale artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the Dutch Golden Age tradition of depicting the country's powerful maritime legacy.
