Figuren aan een tafel in een interieur c. 1886 - 1934

"Figuren aan een tafel in een interieur" is a charcoal sketch by Dutch artist Isaac Israels, created between 1886 and 1934. The work, housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a group of figures seated around a table in a dimly lit interior setting. Israels' signature loose and expressive style, evident in the blurred outlines and sketchy details, characterizes the sketch. The artwork exemplifies his interest in capturing everyday moments and the interplay of light and shadow. While the figures remain unidentified, their casual posture and the informal setting suggest a private gathering, providing a glimpse into the artist's personal observations of daily life.
