Zittende jongen met hoed, van achteren 1617 - 1681

"Zittende jongen met hoed, van achteren" is a pencil drawing by Cornelis Saftleven, a Dutch artist known for his genre scenes and landscapes. Created between 1617 and 1681, the drawing captures a young boy seated from the back, wearing a wide-brimmed hat and simple clothing, providing a glimpse into everyday life during Saftleven's era. The subtle shading and meticulous detail in the boy's posture and the chair he sits upon highlight Saftleven's observational skills and his ability to convey a sense of realism.
