Framed Print of Boobjerg, on the coast of Jutland, 1872. Creator: Unknown
Boobjerg, on the coast of Jutland, 1872. The western coast of Jutland consists of a line of sand-hills (klitter), partially covered with a sparse vegetation of a species of wiry grass, planted there for the purpose of fastening the loose sand together. In some places the sand contains a sufficient admixture of clay to enable the Jutish peasant to raise some meagre crops of barley and rye. In the immediate vicinity of the German Ocean, which in Denmark is called the Western Sea, in spite of the fierce west wind and the dreaded havguse, a cold, clammy mist, which at times ascends from the ocean, is unfriendly both to man and vegetation. These sand-hills rise and fall in long swells, in one place lifting themselves up to a height of nearly 200 ft. This almost precipitous cliff is called the Boobjerg, and is an important landmark to passing ships...The sketch from which our Engraving is drawn was made by a Danish gentleman, Mr. Peter Toft. A landslip took place some months before he visited the spot. The action of the wind had fashioned the huge lumps of clay into oddly-twisted shapes, as represented in the sketch'.
