Huis in de duinen 1834 - 1911

"Huis in de duinen" (House in the Dunes) is a pencil drawing by Dutch artist Jozef Israëls, created between 1834 and 1911. Now located in the Rijksmuseum, this small drawing depicts a simple house nestled amidst tall grasses and dunes. The artist's signature hatching technique, evident in the depiction of the clouds and vegetation, contributes to a sense of depth and atmosphere. This work showcases Israëls' early exploration of landscape, a theme he would later develop in his more famous paintings.
