Note du spécialiste

In the summer of 1901, Liebermann travelled from Berlin to Amsterdam and then on to the fashionable Dutch coastal resort of Scheveningen. Once installed, aside from continuing with his series of paintings depicting riders on the coast, he found inspiration in the depiction of figures in front of the beach's picket fence bordering the sea. The seminal Tennisspieler am Meer (Eberle, vol. II, no. 1) is from this series, which Liebermann revisited in his studio in Berlin much like the present work.
