Compositie van draperie en arm 1870 - 1923

"Compositie van draperie en arm" is a pencil drawing created by Willem Witsen between 1870 and 1923. The artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a study of an arm and drapery, demonstrating Witsen's meticulous attention to detail and his mastery of the medium. This type of study is common in academic art and helped artists develop their skill in rendering form and texture. The simplicity of the composition allows the viewer to focus on the artist's techniques and the interplay of light and shadow.
