Duinlandschap 1881 - 1927

"Duinlandschap" (Dune Landscape) is a pastel drawing by Johan Antonie de Jonge, created between 1881 and 1927. The piece depicts a landscape with dunes, sky, and clouds, and uses soft, blended hues of grey, blue, and brown to capture the gentle textures of the scene. The artist's loose, gestural brushstrokes give the work an atmospheric quality, inviting the viewer to imagine the feel of the sand and the wind blowing through the grasses. De Jonge, known for his landscape paintings, favored the use of pastel in his works, which often showcased the natural beauty of the Dutch landscape.
