Staande figuren 1875 - 1934

"Staande figuren" is a charcoal drawing on paper by Dutch artist Isaac Israels, created between 1875 and 1934. This quick sketch features four figures, likely individuals, with minimal detail in the surrounding landscape. The work is characteristic of Israels' style, characterized by loose, gestural lines and an emphasis on capturing the fleeting moments of everyday life. The drawing exemplifies the artist's exploration of light and shadow, creating a sense of depth and movement. "Staande figuren" currently resides in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam.
