Created by an anonymous French School artist in the 17th century, this artwork is part of a collection titled Les Menus Plaisirs du Roi. The scene depicted features sailors joyfully dancing around a majestic mast, their movements synchronized with grace and precision. The intricate details of the set design, rendered using watercolor and pen & ink on paper, bring life to every element on stage - from the billowing sails to the meticulously crafted rigging.
