"Mannenkop" is a pencil sketch by Cornelis Vreedenburgh, created between 1935 and 1936. This expressive piece depicts a man's head in profile, his mouth wide open in a silent scream. The drawing is characterized by its rapid, gestural lines, capturing a moment of intense emotion. Currently held at the Rijksmuseum, this sketch offers a glimpse into Vreedenburgh's artistic process and his ability to capture human emotion with striking simplicity.
