Meisjes met een muts en een schort, staand en zittend in het gras 1834 - 1911

"Meisjes met een muts en een schort, staand en zittend in het gras" is a pencil drawing by Dutch artist Jozef Israëls. Created between 1834 and 1911, the artwork depicts two young girls, one seated and the other standing, in a casual pose. This piece showcases Israëls' skill in capturing the natural beauty and innocence of childhood, a theme that was central to his oeuvre. It is a fine example of his signature style, characterized by loose, expressive lines and a focus on everyday subjects. The drawing, currently held at the Rijksmuseum, is a valuable testament to Israëls' talent and the social realism that defined his art.
