Zittende slapende vrouw met een krant 1834 - 1911

"Zittende slapende vrouw met een krant" is a pen and ink drawing by the Dutch painter Jozef Israëls, created between 1834 and 1911. The drawing depicts a woman sitting in a chair, asleep, with a newspaper resting on her lap. The work is a study of the human figure and the artist's use of line and shading to create a sense of volume and form is evident. The work is part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam and is a good example of Israëls' characteristic style.
