Figuren op het strand 1826 - 1907

"Figuren op het strand" (Figures on the Beach) is a small etching by Dutch artist Charles Leickert. The etching is a simple yet evocative depiction of figures on a beach with a boat in the distance. The work is characteristic of Leickert's style, which often employed light, loose brushstrokes and focused on capturing the beauty of nature. It is likely that Leickert's etching was inspired by his own travels and observations of the Dutch coast. The small size of the work further emphasizes its intimate nature, inviting the viewer to contemplate the scene and imagine the details of the day.
