Drie vrouwen met takkenbossen op een bospad c. 1884 - 1887

"Drie vrouwen met takkenbossen op een bospad" (Three Women with Bundles of Branches on a Forest Path) is a pencil sketch by Willem Witsen, a Dutch artist known for his depictions of everyday life and landscapes. Created between 1884 and 1887, the artwork depicts three women walking through a forest, their forms obscured by their clothing and the surrounding trees. Witsen's loose, expressive lines and sketchy details are characteristic of his style and create a sense of atmosphere and movement in this evocative scene. The sketch is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
