Nighttime marine scene with boats. Dutch School. 17th century.

Descriptio Oil on canvas. Dimensions 83 × 64 cm. A night scene depicts a large sailing ship anchored in calm waters under a partially cloudy sky, illuminated by the moon. To the left, a small group of figures gathers around a campfire in a smaller boat. Moonlight is subtly reflected on the water’s surface, creating a poetic and melancholic atmosphere. The composition combines narrative and atmospheric elements, with a restrained palette of ochres, blacks, and silver highlights. This work belongs to the tradition of 17th-century Dutch marine painting, which developed a particular mastery in capturing light and weather effects. Influences of artists such as Aert van der Neer are evident in the treatment of shadows and reflections. The piece stands out for its evocative power and refined compositional balance.
