Deel van een ornament met zittende heiligen 1876 - 1951

"Deel van een ornament met zittende heiligen" (Part of an ornament with seated saints), is a pencil drawing by Dutch artist Theo Nieuwenhuis. The drawing, which is part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum, depicts a detail of an architectural ornament with two seated figures. The figures are outlined in a simple, gestural style, characteristic of Nieuwenhuis's work. This drawing is likely a preliminary sketch for a larger work, capturing the essence of the detail while leaving room for further refinement. The drawing’s simplicity and focus on essential lines reflects a focus on form and composition characteristic of Nieuwenhuis's artistic vision.
