Schemering in de haven van Cuxhaven 1851 - 1902

"Schemering in de haven van Cuxhaven" (Twilight in the harbor of Cuxhaven) is a drawing created by Carel Nicolaas Storm van 's-Gravesande between 1851 and 1902. The artwork depicts a quiet scene of a harbor at dusk, with the outline of a building in the background and a small boat in the foreground. The composition is dominated by the reflection of the light on the water, which is rendered in subtle tones of grey and brown, creating a sense of stillness and mystery. The drawing, now in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the artist's keen eye for detail and his ability to capture the essence of a moment in time.
