The Beach at Scheveningen (?), with Strollers 1760 - 1825

"The Beach at Scheveningen (?), with Strollers" is a watercolor painting by Simon Andreas Krausz, dating from 1760–1825. It depicts a beach scene with figures strolling along the shore, while several ships sail in the distance. The painting, now in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, captures the light and airy atmosphere of the Dutch coast with its emphasis on the expansive sky and its billowing clouds, characteristic of the artist's style.
