Figuren in zeventiende-eeuwse kleding c. 1846 - 1882

"Figuren in zeventiende-eeuwse kleding," a watercolor by Dutch artist Cornelis Springer, showcases a series of figures dressed in 17th-century clothing. Created between 1846 and 1882, the artwork is a study of historical fashion and features various individuals in a range of poses, including men and women in formal attire and children in everyday garments. The loose, sketch-like style of the drawing reflects a focus on capturing the details of clothing rather than precise realism. This work is housed in the Rijksmuseum, offering a glimpse into Springer's fascination with historical costume and his artistic practice.
