{"product_id":"2639","title":"1900s Scheveningen Dutch Seascape Fishing Boats Vintage Art Postcard UDB","description":"\u003ch3\u003eAbout This Postcard\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis artistic monochromatic postcard features a maritime scene on the beach at Scheveningen, Netherlands. The artwork, signed by A. Heide, depicts traditional Dutch fishing boats, known as bomschuiten, being hauled onto the sandy shore by a large group of people. Because Scheveningen lacked a deep-water harbor until 1904, these heavy, flat-bottomed boats were designed to be beached directly on the sand. The scene captures the labor-intensive nature of the local fishing industry and the dramatic coastal atmosphere of the North Sea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEra: Undivided Back (c. 1898–1905)\u003cbr\u003eCity: Scheveningen (The Hague)\u003cbr\u003eCountry: Netherlands\u003cbr\u003eTopic: Maritime Art, Dutch Fishing Industry, Bomschuiten (Flat-bottomed boats), North Sea Coastal Life, Beach Scenes.\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Unposted \/ Uncirculated\u003cbr\u003eAddress Side: Undivided Back\u003cbr\u003eOrientation: Horizontal (Landscape)\u003cbr\u003eArtist \/ Photographer: A.

Heide, is visible in the lower-right area of the illustration. The back of the card is a multilingual undivided back, featuring titles in French (Carte Postale), Italian (Cartolina Postale), German (Postkarte), Hungarian (Levelező-Lap), and Dutch (Briefkaart). This universal design was common for cards intended for international distribution across Europe. The lack of a vertical dividing line on the back confirms it was produced before 1905, when postal regulations changed to allow messages on the left side of the address area.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLove it ♡\u003cbr\u003eGet it ☆\u003cbr\u003eGet Lucky 💋 Vintage\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Get Lucky Vintage","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46679949738173,"sku":"2639","price":12.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0625\/4818\/1181\/files\/2639a.jpg?v=1776440807","url":"https:\/\/www.getluckyvintage.com\/products\/2639","provider":"Get Lucky Vintage ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
