Zittende vrouw 1875 - 1934

This is a graphite drawing by Dutch artist Isaac Israels, titled "Zittende vrouw" (Sitting Woman). The piece, created between 1875 and 1934, showcases a woman in a dynamic pose. It is currently part of the Rijksmuseum collection. The gestural lines and loose strokes of the pencil give the work a sense of immediacy and capture a fleeting moment in time. Israels was known for his skill in capturing the essence of his subjects through quick and expressive drawings.
