Vooroverliggende man 1821 - 1891

"Vooroverliggende man" is a realistic drawing by Dutch artist Guillaume Anne van der Brugghen, completed between 1821 and 1891. The drawing, which measures 240mm by 325mm, depicts a man lying prone on the ground, his face obscured by a shadow. The work captures a moment of quiet contemplation, the man's posture suggesting a sense of weariness or resignation. It is a study of human form and gesture, executed with a sense of realism and detail that was characteristic of the 19th century.
