About the artwork

This photo captures the serene beauty of a sunset over the IJsselmeer, seen from a long wooden jetty stretching straight into the horizon. The perspective of the jetty naturally leads the eye to the focal point: the setting sun visible just above the waterline. The sky is filled with warm shades of orange, yellow and soft pink, reflecting beautifully in the mirror-smooth water. The clouds add depth and drama to the composition, while the calm water provides an almost symmetrical reflection of the sky.

The combination of clean lines, warm colours and the still water creates a sense of tranquillity and endlessness. It is as if the jetty forms a path to the sun, an invitation to pause for a moment and become fully absorbed in the moment. The IJsselmeer, one of the largest lakes in the Netherlands, is known for its vast horizon and unique light. This shot shows that character in a pure and subdued way.

Perfect as wall decoration for lovers of water, tranquillity and minimalist landscapes. This photo highlights how grand simplicity can be: a sun, a jetty, a horizon - that's all it takes to create a timeless image.
