Herderin 1840 - 1907

"Herderin" is an ink drawing by Johan Michaël Schmidt Crans, a Dutch artist who lived from 1830 to 1907. The drawing depicts a woman standing with her back to the viewer, leaning against a wall, and holding a walking stick. The artist uses hatching and cross-hatching techniques to create depth and form, creating a sense of realism in the figure. This drawing exemplifies Crans’ artistic approach to capturing the beauty of everyday life.
