This is a sketch by Willem Witsen, a Dutch artist known for his realism and social commentary. The sketch is a simple drawing of two hands, likely a study for a larger work. The artist, a renowned figure painter, is famous for his depictions of working-class life in Amsterdam. This piece, created between 1892 and 1897, showcases Witsen's keen eye for detail and his ability to capture the essence of human interaction through gestural lines. This drawing is part of a larger sketchbook held at the Rijksmuseum.
