Marine Scene

Hendrik Willem Mesdag

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white image of a seascape. A small boat with a large group of people struggles to stay afloat in choppy water. The boat is in the center-right and faces left. It has three sails. A second boat with one large sail is on the left and faces right. The boat is in the distance. The choppy water takes up most of the image. The background shows a hazy sky.
