Liggend meisje 1834 - 1903

"Liggend meisje" (Reclining Girl), a pencil sketch by Dutch artist Johan Hendrik Weissenbruch, is a study in figure drawing. Created sometime between 1834 and 1903, the artwork captures a woman in a relaxed pose, her form rendered with loose, expressive lines. Weissenbruch, known for his landscapes and atmospheric scenes, demonstrates his versatility through this simple yet powerful depiction. The work, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, offers a glimpse into the artist's creative process and his keen observation of human form.
