Portret van een onbekende vrouw 1848 - 1927

"Portret van een onbekende vrouw" is a delicate pencil drawing by August Allebé, a prominent Dutch artist known for his realism. Created between 1848 and 1927, the work captures the profile of an unidentified woman, her hair neatly arranged, and features a minimalist style, focusing on the subtle lines and contours of the face. The drawing, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into Allebé's masterful use of line and his ability to evoke character and emotion through simple yet expressive strokes.
