A charming pencil drawing from the circle of Hugo Mühlig (1854–1929), depicting a resting man reclining in the dunes while interacting with his two donkeys.

Born in Dresden, Mühlig studied at the Dresden Academy of Fine Arts and was a master pupil of Viktor Paul Mohn. He settled in Düsseldorf in 1881, where he became known for his landscape and genre scenes. His work combined the detailed observation of the natural world with increasingly impressionistic approaches. Mühlig frequently travelled to the North Sea coast, the Lower Rhine, Eifel and the artists’ colony of Willingshausen, making numerous drawings and studies directly from nature.
