Drie kunstenaars in een zeventiende-eeuws interieur 1835 - 1891

Ernest Meissonier's "Drie kunstenaars in een zeventiende-eeuws interieur" is a pencil drawing depicting three artists working in a 17th-century studio. The central figure, likely Meissonier himself, stands with a palette and brush, intently observing a female nude model. Another figure, seated, appears to be sketching while a third figure in the background is obscured. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is apparent in the depiction of the studio's interior, from the furniture to the paintings on the wall. This 19th-century sketch, measuring 128 mm by 200 mm, provides insight into the creative process and the social dynamics of the artist's world.
