A dynamic and expressive etching by John Marin, *Sailboat* captures the restless energy of the sea through bold, deeply worked lines that carry a rich, velvety burr. The heavily etched marks convey the movement and vitality of a vessel cutting through the water, while a delicate overall plate tone lends the composition a luminous, atmospheric quality. Printed on laid paper with generous margins, this fine impression exemplifies Marin's mastery of the etching medium and his ability to distill the essence of maritime life into gestural, immediate mark-making.
