Acrobaat 1875 - 1934

"Acrobaat" is a pencil drawing by Isaac Israels, a Dutch artist known for his expressive and dynamic style. The drawing depicts a figure in mid-air, seemingly mid-performance, captured in swift, gestural strokes that convey both the energy and fleeting nature of the act. The piece is characteristic of Israels' interest in capturing movement and emotion in his work. This drawing, created between 1875 and 1934, is now housed in the Rijksmuseum, offering a glimpse into Israels' artistic process and his fascination with the human form in motion.
