EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the Liszt Collection transports us to a tumultuous scene on the open waters. Titled "Sailing ships on turbulent water Various ships (series title)" it is part of a series of five prints featuring different ships in action. In this particular image, our attention is drawn to the foreground where a majestic two-master proudly displays an English flag. Perched on its deck is a sloop, adding to the dynamic composition. What truly brings this print to life is the rowing boat positioned next to the two-master. Manned by eight figures, it adds human presence and scale amidst the vastness of the sea. The artist's attention to detail shines through as each ship and figure are meticulously engraved onto paper. The inclusion of Gerrit Groenewegen's name in the margin further enhances our appreciation for this artwork's historical significance. Created in Rotterdam in 1793, it serves as a testament to both nautical exploration and artistic craftsmanship during that era. As we gaze upon this print, we can almost feel ourselves being swept away by waves crashing against these sailing vessels. It serves as a reminder of humanity's enduring fascination with maritime adventures and pays homage to those who braved treacherous waters aboard these magnificent ships.
