Vrouwenhoofd en een liggend vrouwelijk naakt 1875 - 1934

"Vrouwenhoofd en een liggend vrouwelijk naakt" (Woman's Head and Reclining Female Nude) is a pencil drawing by Isaac Israels, a prominent Dutch artist known for his figurative works. The piece, created between 1875 and 1934, showcases a quick sketch of a woman's head and body, captured in a casual, loose style. The use of graphite lines suggests a fleeting moment of observation and underscores Israels' skill in capturing the human form with expressive simplicity. Currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, this drawing offers a glimpse into Israels' artistic process and his fascination with the human figure.
