Figuur met bochel 1926

"Figuur met bochel" (1926) is a woodcut by Samuel Jessurun de Mesquita, a prominent Dutch graphic artist. The artwork depicts a solitary figure with a hunched back, leaning on a walking stick, rendered in stark black and white. The use of bold lines and strong contrasts, characteristic of woodcut prints, emphasizes the figure's isolation and vulnerability. The artwork is a powerful example of de Mesquita's expressive style and his exploration of human emotions. Currently, it is part of the collection at the Rijksmuseum.
