Vissersboten in een haven 1880 - 1884

Carel Nicolaas Storm van 's-Gravesande's etching, "Vissersboten in een haven", depicts a tranquil scene of fishing boats moored in a harbor. The artist, known for his evocative landscapes, captures the soft light of twilight and the still waters of the harbor. The composition is dominated by the boats, their masts and sails outlined against the pale sky, while the distant cityscape and figures on the dock add a sense of human scale and activity. This etching is part of the Rijksmuseum's collection and is a testament to the artist's skill in capturing the beauty of everyday scenes.
