Figuren op een brug over een gracht 1822 - 1893

"Figuren op een brug over een gracht" is a watercolor sketch by Willem (II) Troost, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. The artist, a Dutch painter born in 1812, captures a fleeting moment in a canal-side scene, featuring figures crossing a bridge and buildings in the background. This quick, impressionistic style emphasizes the daily life of ordinary people in 19th century Netherlands. This work is a great example of Troost's interest in capturing the everyday scenes of his surroundings.
