Short Description: "Reinier Nooms (c. 1623 – 1664), also known as Zeeman (Dutch for "sailor"), was a Dutch maritime painter known for his highly detailed paintings and etchings of ships.

Nooms was probably born and died in Amsterdam. He started painting and drawing in his later years, following a rough, drunken life as a sailor. It is not known how he acquired his skill as an artist. His knowledge of ships is evident from his work: ships and foreign locations are depicted with high accuracy and in great detail, and served as an example to other artists of how to depict ships.

A widely traveled artist, Nooms visited Paris, Venice and possibly Berlin, and also journeyed along the coast of North Africa." - (en.wikipedia.org 11.08.2021)
