Huis aan het water 1881 - 1927

"Huis aan het water" (House by the water) is a charcoal drawing by Johan Antonie de Jonge, created between 1881 and 1927. The drawing depicts a house, likely on the waterfront, through a hazy atmosphere. De Jonge's use of loose, expressive lines and contrasting light and dark tones creates a sense of depth and atmosphere, reflecting the Impressionist style he was known for. The work captures the essence of a simple landscape with a focus on the effects of light and shadow. The artwork is a testament to De Jonge's skillful portrayal of everyday scenes through the evocative power of charcoal.
