Studie 1849 - 1917

"Studie" is a pencil sketch by Matthijs Maris, a prominent Dutch painter of the late 19th century. The sketch, housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a landscape scene likely drawn from observation. Maris, known for his detailed and evocative works, often focused on landscapes and figures, capturing the subtle nuances of light and shadow. This particular sketch, while rudimentary, hints at his signature style with its delicate lines and atmospheric quality.
