Bernard Picart's "Schip in een ornamentele lijst met triton en nereïde" is a 1717 etching depicting a ship framed by a decorative border. This border is created by a nereid (female sea-nymph) and a triton (male sea-nymph) with a trident, positioned on either side of the ship. This vignette suggests a celebration of the sea and seafaring with its maritime imagery and stylized design. The etching, housed at the Rijksmuseum, is a fine example of the skilled work of Picart, who is known for his intricate and detailed designs.
