Bordurend meisje in de duinen 1847 - 1909

"Bordurend meisje in de duinen" is a black and white etching by Edgar Alfred Baes created sometime between 1847 and 1909. It depicts a young girl, possibly a young woman, sitting on a dune with her back to the viewer, her gaze directed towards the sea. The artwork is created with a high level of detail, showcasing the artist’s skill in capturing the textures of the sand, the windswept dunes, and the girl’s clothing. This realistic depiction of a serene moment in the Dutch landscape exemplifies Baes’ talent for capturing everyday life in a melancholic, yet tender way.
