"Moonlight Sailing" is a marine painting by Dutch-American artist Mauritz Frederik Hendrik de Haas (1832–1895), known for his seascapes and maritime works. Born in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, de Haas studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Rotterdam and later at the Royal Academy in The Hague. He moved to the United States in 1859, where he became a member of the National Academy of Design in New York and gained recognition for his depictions of the sea.

The painting "Moonlight Sailing" captures the serene and luminous quality of a nocturnal seascape, a subject for which de Haas was particularly acclaimed. His mastery in portraying the reflections of moonlight on water and the subtle gradations of night skies is evident in this work. The composition typically features a sailing vessel, possibly a schooner or a similar type of ship, gliding through calm waters under the gentle illumination of the moon. De Haas's attention to detail and his ability to convey the movement of light and shadow on the sails and the sea's surface contribute to the painting's tranquil and poetic atmosphere.

"Moonlight Sailing" exemplifies de Haas's skill in marine painting, a genre that was popular in the 19th century, especially among affluent patrons who admired the romantic and dynamic qualities of the sea. De Haas's works are part of several museum collections, and his paintings continue to be appreciated for their technical proficiency and evocative beauty.

As an artist who bridged his European training with American themes, Mauritz F. H. de Haas played a role in the development of marine art in the United States during the latter half of the 19th century. "Moonlight Sailing" remains a testament to his legacy and a fine example of his artistic contributions.
