Geboeide engel of genius 1886

"Geboeide engel of genius" is a drawing by Belgian artist Arthur Sterck, created in 1886. The artwork, measuring 162mm x 230mm, depicts a winged female figure seated on a block. The figure's pose suggests a state of contemplation or sadness, while the wings, partially obscured, add a sense of mystery and vulnerability. This piece, created during Sterck's short but prolific career, showcases his talent for capturing emotional nuance through precise linework and subtle shading.
