Vrouwenkop in profiel naar rechts Possibly 1943

"Vrouwenkop in profiel naar rechts" (Woman's Head in Profile to the Right), is a drawing by Samuel Jessurun de Mesquita, dated to 1943. The artwork depicts a woman's face, seen in profile, executed in a minimal and expressive style. The lines are fluid and capture the essence of the subject with great economy, highlighting the artist's mastery of line drawing. This work, currently at the Rijksmuseum, represents a powerful example of De Mesquita's skill and his ability to convey emotion and character through simplified forms.
