"Staand meisje dat haar rok optilt" (Standing Girl Lifting Her Skirt) is a delicate pencil drawing by Dutch artist Anthonie Willem Hendrik Nolthenius de Man. Created between 1803 and 1842, the small-scale work depicts a young girl in a simple dress, her skirt lifted, revealing her legs. The artist's signature, "d.m", appears on the right side of the composition. The drawing demonstrates De Man's skill in capturing the subtle details of human anatomy and drapery, resulting in a charming and intimate portrait of childhood innocence.
