Danseres met de handen in de zij 1875 - 1934

"Danseres met de handen in de zij" is a quick sketch by Dutch painter Isaac Israels, dating from 1875-1934. The sketch features a single figure, a dancer, captured in a dynamic pose. The loose and expressive lines of the drawing, executed in pencil, are characteristic of Israels's style, which combined realism with a touch of Impressionism. This drawing is a study for a larger artwork and shows Israels's focus on the human figure. This artwork is part of the Rijksmuseum collection.
