Zittende man die zich met een doek op het hoofd wrijft 1791 - 1850

Totoya Hokkei's "Zittende man die zich met een doek op het hoofd wrijft" (1791-1850) is a simple yet expressive ink drawing depicting a man seated in a relaxed pose, gently rubbing his head with a cloth. Hokkei, known for his mastery of brushwork in the *ukiyo-e* style, captures the essence of a quiet moment with minimalist lines. This intimate portrayal showcases the artist's keen eye for detail, even in a seemingly casual subject, demonstrating the beauty found in everyday life. The drawing, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to Hokkei's talent for capturing the human figure with both grace and authenticity.
