Gezelschap in de duinen 1767 - 1780

"Gezelschap in de duinen" (Company in the Dunes) is a 1767-1780 drawing by Bernhard Schreuder, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection. The artwork depicts a group of figures in a landscape setting, likely a beach or dune area. The scene is rendered in a delicate, yet detailed style, with emphasis on the figures' clothing and the natural environment. The composition and subject matter are typical of Dutch genre painting of the 18th century, with its focus on everyday life and the natural world. Schreuder's work was particularly known for its depiction of landscapes and coastal scenes. The artwork's small size, measuring 116 mm by 177 mm, suggests it may have been a preparatory study or a personal work.
