Spelende meisjes en twee zonnebadende vrouwen op het strand c. 1930 - 1940

"Spelende meisjes en twee zonnebadende vrouwen op het strand" is a pencil and colored pencil sketch by Dutch artist Otto Verhagen, dating back to the 1930s or 1940s. This artwork depicts various figures on a beach, a child holding a shovel, another squatting with a bucket, two women sunbathing, and a single standing figure. The style of the artwork is typical of Verhagen's work, showing loose lines and an emphasis on capturing the moment rather than achieving perfect realism. The light and playful atmosphere of the beach scene is captured in the relaxed postures of the figures and the use of vibrant colors. The artist's quick sketches create a sense of spontaneity and movement in the composition, capturing a fleeting moment in time.
