Figuren op een markt c. 1828 - 1897

This pencil sketch by Adrianus Eversen, titled "Figuren op een markt" (Figures at a Market), depicts a lively scene likely set in the Netherlands, where Eversen was born and worked. Dated c. 1828-1897, the drawing captures the bustling energy of a marketplace through loose, gestural lines. While the figures are simplified, their interactions and movement convey a sense of everyday life. Eversen's quick, expressive lines, characteristic of his work, create a sense of immediacy and dynamism, capturing the fleeting moments of the market.
