Man met een hoed bij een venster 1890 - 1946

"Man met een hoed bij een venster" is a pencil sketch by Dutch artist Cornelis Vreedenburgh, created sometime between 1890 and 1946. The drawing shows a man from the shoulders up, peering into a window, his hat pulled low over his brow, with only a small portion of his face visible. The artwork, housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a striking example of Vreedenburgh's expressive style, characterized by loose, gestural lines and a focus on capturing the essence of the subject. The work's simplicity and suggestive nature invite viewers to imagine the man's thoughts and motivations, creating a sense of intrigue.
