"Staande man, mogelijk op een podium" is a pencil sketch by Dutch artist Isaac Israels, created sometime between the 1910s and 1920s. The drawing features a simple yet expressive depiction of a man standing, possibly on a stage, with a loose, gestural style that captures the essence of the figure rather than focusing on precise detail. This sketch demonstrates Israels' keen eye for capturing human form and movement, showcasing his mastery of line and composition. The work is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
