Landschap c. 1915 - 1920

"Landschap" (Landscape), a charcoal drawing by Willem Witsen, is a quick and impressionistic sketch depicting a forest scene. Created between 1915 and 1920, the piece captures the essence of nature with its loose lines and minimal detail. The artist's use of charcoal creates a sense of depth and texture, with the lines of the trees and the surrounding landscape blending together, suggesting a fleeting moment in time. The artwork, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, exemplifies Witsen's mastery of capturing the atmosphere and subtle beauty of his surroundings.
