Vissersschepen op het strand van Scheveningen 1874 - 1927

"Vissersschepen op het strand van Scheveningen" (Fishing Boats on the Beach of Scheveningen) is a watercolor painting by Johan Antonie de Jonge, created between 1874 and 1927. The painting captures a moment of everyday life in the Dutch coastal town of Scheveningen, depicting several fishing boats grounded on the shore at low tide. De Jonge's signature style, characterized by loose brushstrokes and a focus on capturing light and atmosphere, is evident in the work. This small-scale watercolor (228 mm x 290 mm) demonstrates the artist's mastery of capturing the movement of the sea and the energy of the figures, creating a dynamic composition.
