AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Oil on canvas
Signed
A sunny beach scene with children playing, bathers and sailing boats under a high, blue sky with clouds. Along the waterline unfolds a lively tableau of walkers, beach chairs and tents. The colorful balloons near the middle form a cheerful accent and draw the eye into the scene.
Joop van Leeuwen was born in 1962 in The Hague and studied at the Royal Academy of Art in his hometown. Even during his studies he painted impressionistic beach scenes; urban scenes and winter motifs are also among his subjects.
In this work, loose brushstrokes and a light palette of sandy tones, blue and white convey the atmosphere of a summer coastal day. The figures are indicated with a few sharp strokes, allowing the scene to retain its liveliness. The broad frame with a light inner margin suits the painting’s bright character.
Dimensions canvas: 40 cm high by 50 cm wide
Dimensions frame: 69 cm high by 79 cm wide

Seller's Story
My name is Reinoud Sprong, 25 years old and living in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
From a family of three brothers and two enterprising parents, I developed a passion for art and antiques at a young age. I attended the major art fairs, and visited museums. I also started reading early about art that particularly interested me. That led to pursuing a Bachelor in History at Utrecht University, after which my master’s in Art, Market and Connoisseurship at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam crowned the academic level of art.
Since my youth I have had a fondness for trade and entrepreneurship. From my own disco, catering and various side ventures it was time for the real trade: Art and Antiques! Through my early interest I was able to do many different sniffing/internship experiences and gain field experience. After a six-month internship as junior expert in classical arts at the fastest growing European online auction house Catawiki I was sure; Reinoud would establish an official art dealing business for himself. I began with purchases at auctions, online marketplaces and visited markets. The first storage is located in my grandmother’s garage and thus the adventure began.
Now, a little further on and I’m quite proud of how far we’ve come in a short time. We have clients worldwide and grow slowly. By actively engaging on social media we try, through our videos, to enthuse the younger generation for art and antiques.
Currently we work from a small storage space that is almost always full. Clients are warmly welcome here by appointment!
In the future we hope to be able to offer a larger collection of furniture and fine art. My goal is to open a large showroom in a characterful building, where we can welcome all clients.
