Studieblad met aangemeerde bomschuiten en kamelen in een woestijnlandschap 1830 - 1860

This pencil sketch by Albertus van Beest, created between 1830 and 1860, depicts a scene of boats docked in a shallow body of water with a desert landscape in the distance. Van Beest, who was known for his maritime art, utilizes a light and airy style to depict the scene. The inclusion of camels in the distance suggests that the boats may have traveled from a distant land. The sketch is currently on display at the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
