Studieblad met vrouwen en een mannenhoofd c. 1901 - 1927

This charcoal and watercolor sketch by Johan Antonie de Jonge, dating from 1901-1927, features a composition of figures in loose, gestural strokes. The artist's signature use of line and shading creates a sense of movement and immediacy, conveying a snapshot of everyday life. De Jonge was known for his expressive depictions of people in their natural environments, reflecting the artistic trends of the early 20th century. This study, likely a preliminary drawing for a larger work, showcases the artist's masterful ability to capture fleeting moments through rapid sketches.
