EDITORS COMMENTS
A Brig" is a stunning and intricately detailed pen and ink drawing by Willem van de Velde the Younger, dating back to the 17th century. This masterpiece is currently housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, showcasing the institution's impressive collection of heritage art. The drawing depicts a brig, a type of sailing ship commonly used during the Baroque era for transportation of goods and people, as it sails away from the shoreline. The artist's expert use of pen and brown ink, as well as graphite and gray wash on ivory laid paper laid down on buff wove paper, brings the wooden vessel to life. The intricate details of the ship's rigging, sails, and hull are rendered with remarkable precision, while the subtle use of shading and contrast creates a sense of depth and movement. The drawing also captures the essence of the Low Countries, with its nautical scene reflecting the region's rich maritime heritage. The ships in the drawing are reminiscent of the many vessels that once plied the waters of the North Sea, transporting goods from the Netherlands to various European ports. "A Brig" is a testament to Willem van de Velde the Younger's exceptional skill as a draftsman and his deep understanding of the intricacies of sailing ships. The drawing invites us to imagine the excitement and anticipation of setting sail on a journey across the sea, transporting us back to a time when the world was connected by the vast and ever-expanding network of maritime trade. This beautiful and evocative drawing is a must-see for anyone interested in the history of art, the Baroque era, or the maritime traditions of the Low Countries. The Art Institute of Chicago is fortunate to have such a rare and exquisite work in its collection, and we are reminded of the importance of preserving and celebrating our artistic heritage for future generations to enjoy.
