Straat met auto's en figuren 1890 - 1946

"Straat met auto's en figuren" is a quick sketch of a street scene by Dutch artist Cornelis Vreedenburgh, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. Created sometime between 1890 and 1946, the artwork displays a light and airy quality through the use of thin lines and a simple grayscale palette. The perspective is slightly distorted, giving the viewer a unique glimpse of the street from a high vantage point. The sketch captures the daily life of the time, with people walking and a car driving down the street. The rapid, expressive lines suggest the artist was working quickly, capturing a fleeting moment in time.
