Hendrick van Anthonissen

A Beach Scene

This panel painting was unknown until it entered the Kremer Collection,  and is among Van Anthonissen’s smallest works. Many of Van Anthonissen’s marines depict existing locations; however in our utterly refined beach scene there is no clue giving away a specific location. Interesting to us is the placement of the teepee tent, rarely seen in 17th century painting.

Date 1632

Materials Panel
