Zeegezicht 1865 - 1913

"Zeegezicht" is a pencil sketch created by Bramine Hubrecht between 1865 and 1913, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. Though the drawing is a preliminary study, it shows the artist's skill in capturing the essence of a seascape with just a few strokes, focusing on the vertical lines of the sail masts against a blank background. This simple but effective composition hints at the artist's interest in capturing the movement and dynamism of a nautical scene. Hubrecht's seascapes are known for their atmospheric quality and keen observation of light and water.
