More about this artwork

Welcome to an enchanting visual experience presented on our website. Today, we are delighted to feature the remarkable artwork titled "Zwemmende kikker" (Swimming Frog), created by the talented Dutch artist Julie de Graag between 1887 and 1924.In this captivating piece, the essence of tranquility and natural beauty is exquisitely captured through the depiction of a lone frog immersed in a calm aquatic environment. The frog, illustrated in vibrant greens and peppered with dark spots, swims gracefully amongst the understated details of underwater plant life. Its limbs are elegantly stretched, suggesting movement through the murky waters depicted in deep, earthy tones at the base of the painting.Above the frog, the surface of the water is beautifully implied by swirling forms and bubbles, which reflect a subtle interplay of light and shadow. Julie de Graag’s use of bold outlines and a limited but impactful color palette lends a striking contrast that enhances the visual depth and the thematic emphasis on the natural world.This artwork not only showcases De Graag’s skill in linocut techniques but also her profound sensitivity towards depicting nature with a poetic grace. "Zwemmende kikker" invites viewers to pause and reflect on the simplicity and the serene beauty of the natural world.
