Twee gearmde vrouwen c. 1886 - 1934

"Twee gearmde vrouwen" is a quick sketch on paper by Dutch artist Isaac Israels, created between 1886 and 1934. It's a study in quick line work, featuring two women, one on the left and one on the right. The drawing is likely a preparatory sketch for a larger painting, capturing the essence of the subjects in a gestural and expressive style. The use of graphite and the quick, loose lines are typical of Israels' style. The drawing is now housed in the Rijksmuseum, offering a glimpse into Israels' artistic process.
