Two sailing ships on the water with the coastline in the background, print, printmaker: Frans Hens, 1890, paper, etching, intaglio printmaking technique, etching with plate tone, height 236 mm x width 318 mm, sailing-ship, sailing-boat, landscapes with waters, waterscapes, seascapes (in the temperate zone), A sepia-toned sketch of a waterscape featuring several sailboats, with a large boat in the foreground showing a tall mast and a furled triangular sail, a few figures standing and sitting on its deck, and reflections in the water beneath. In the midground two smaller sailboats with raised sails are visible, one nearer and one farther away, both with hulls sitting low on the water. The background shows a low shoreline with indistinct buildings and structures along it. The sky is filled with fine, horizontal hatch marks and scattered short strokes suggesting clouds or wind, and the lower right corner contains dense, scribbled vegetation along the water’s edge.
