Lopende jongens met takkenbossen onder de arm 1834 - 1911

"Lopende jongens met takkenbossen onder de arm" (Boys walking with bundles of branches under their arms) is a pencil sketch by Dutch realist painter Jozef Israëls. The sketch depicts two figures, one prominently in the foreground, walking with branches under their arms. The drawing is likely a study for a larger painting and is typical of the artist's focus on everyday life and the working class. The sketch is currently held in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
