The Red North Tower on Schiermonnikoog – a lighthouse in the dunes by Elianne van Turennout

A winding sandy path draws our gaze through the dunes towards the lighthouse. On our way to the tower, we, as viewers, discover more and more new things. Upon reaching the red Noordertoren, we notice how it rises above the green dune landscape.

The combination of the red tower, the emerald-green vegetation and the intense petrol-blue cloudy sky gives this photograph great depth and direction. The landscape appears peaceful and open, whilst the billowing clouds add a sense of dynamism.

This lends Schiermonnikoog a rugged yet inviting island atmosphere. The lighthouse serves as a recognisable landmark even from a distance. This landscape photograph combines tranquillity, movement and a strong colour contrast.

It makes for atmospheric Schiermonnikoog wall art for lovers of the Wadden Islands, lighthouses, island photography, coastal scenes and nature on the wall. The blue and green tones suit a modern, natural or industrial interior, whilst the red adds a striking accent.

The Noordertoren looks great as a photo print, but also works well on canvas, aluminium Dibond, acrylic glass or ArtFrame. A real eye-catcher for the living room, hall, bedroom, study or a holiday home by the sea; especially for those who want to bring that carefree island feeling and the Dutch coast into their home.
