Description
English: Under a tall pale blue sky, with light shimmering through white clouds, a number of ships can be seen sailing in a fresh breeze. A small whale or dolphin is spouting water, in the foreground, amid the choppy waves. Above the low horizon, on the left, a stretch of land is just about visible through the moist atmosphere. On the right there is a kaag, or passenger boat, with several passengers and crew on board. The rigging and detail on the boat has been carefully executed. This vessel is ploughing the waves and, like the distant ships, which appear wrapped in the mist, its depiction displays a degree of naturalism that departs from Vroom’s other paintings.
Date between 1628 and 1630
