Enkele schetsen voor de historie van Jantje 1811 - 1873

"Enkele schetsen voor de historie van Jantje" (Some sketches for the history of Jantje) is a series of four sketches by Pieter van Loon, a Dutch painter, held in the Rijksmuseum. These sketches, likely created between 1811 and 1873, feature various heads and figures, likely preparatory studies for a larger artwork. Van Loon, known for his detailed and expressive portraits, uses loose, gestural lines to capture the essence of his subjects. The artwork is a valuable glimpse into Van Loon's creative process, offering an insight into the artist's early exploration of ideas.
