Figuurstudie 1875 - 1934

"Figuurstudie" is a pencil drawing by Dutch artist Isaac Israels, created sometime between 1875 and 1934. The drawing depicts a figure, likely a woman, in a relaxed pose, her head resting on her arm. The quick lines and shading create a sense of spontaneity, characteristic of Israels' sketch style. The drawing is a study in form and anatomy, showcasing Israels' keen eye for detail and his ability to capture the essence of his subject through minimal lines. The piece is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, providing a glimpse into Israels' artistic process and his mastery of the human form.
