Fragmentarische schets van twee figuren 1827

"Fragmentarische schets van twee figuren" (1827) is a pencil sketch by the French artist Auguste Raffet. The small, intimate drawing depicts two figures in a seemingly fleeting moment. Raffet was known for his drawings of military life, often capturing the drama and humor of battle scenes. This sketch, however, showcases his ability to render figures with sensitivity and immediacy, highlighting his versatility as an artist. The drawing's loose and spontaneous style suggests a study or preliminary work, capturing the essence of a moment rather than meticulously detailed representation.
