Vlag 1890 - 1946

"Vlag" is a pencil drawing on paper by Dutch artist Cornelis Vreedenburgh, dated 1890-1946. It is a quick sketch, possibly a preparatory study for a larger work. The artwork is currently part of the Rijksmuseum collection. This sketch, likely made during the artist’s lifetime, provides a glimpse into Vreedenburgh’s creative process, revealing his initial exploration of form and composition before embarking on a more finished piece. The drawing, likely a preparatory study, suggests the artist’s fascination with the dynamic interplay of lines and the expressive potential of simple forms. It's a prime example of how artists use sketches as a foundation for their artistic ideas, and it offers viewers an intimate look into the artist's personal approach to creation.
