Vrouw in een deuropening 1854 - 1914

"Vrouw in een deuropening" (Woman in a Doorway) is a charcoal drawing by Dutch painter Albert Neuhuys, created between 1854 and 1914. It is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The drawing depicts a woman standing in a doorway, her figure partially obscured by the frame. Neuhuys's sketch captures the woman's posture and the lighting of the scene, suggesting the quiet intimacy of a domestic moment. The sketchy style of the drawing emphasizes the spontaneity of the artist's observation, which is typical of the Impressionist movement of the late 19th century.
