Kustgezicht met enkele boten op het strand 1797 - 1870

"Kustgezicht met enkele boten op het strand" (Seascape with Boats on the Beach) is a delicate pencil drawing by the Dutch artist Andreas Schelfhout, dating from 1797-1870. The minimalist composition, featuring a few boats grounded on the beach, showcases Schelfhout's mastery of light and atmosphere, characteristic of his coastal scenes. The work, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, exemplifies the artist's focus on subtle detail and the tranquility of everyday life.
