Stadsgezicht met een gracht c. 1828 - 1897

This pencil sketch, "Stadsgezicht met een gracht," by Adrianus Eversen, is a quick study of a city scene. The artist's loose lines and light shading suggest an informal approach to the subject, likely captured on location. The composition is dominated by the outline of a building with a canal, possibly in a Dutch town, evoking the characteristic urban landscape of Eversen's time. While the details are minimal, the work captures a sense of atmosphere, hinting at the bustling life within the city. This quick sketch, dated between 1828 and 1897, demonstrates Eversen's skill in capturing a scene with few strokes, typical of his working methods.
