Muzikant met tuba 1873 - 1917

"Muzikant met tuba" is a pencil drawing by Dutch artist Theo van Hoytema, created between 1873 and 1917. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a musician, likely a member of a marching band, seen from the back as he carries a large tuba. Van Hoytema's signature style is evident in the quick, loose strokes and the emphasis on capturing the essence of movement. This small-scale drawing, measuring just 169 mm by 103 mm, exemplifies van Hoytema's talent for conveying a sense of energy and dynamism through his simple yet expressive lines.
