The Miraculous Draught of Fishes

Léonard Gaultier

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a view from an elevated perspective of figures engaged in activities along the water's edge, pulling in fishing nets. Swirling lines convey movement in the water. A group of people stand to the left observing the scene, with one holding a staff. In the distance, a ship with billowing sails is visible. The landscape features rolling hills, trees, and various buildings. The image is detailed with precise shading, using shades of brown in an engraving style.
