Danseres op het toneel, in profiel 1875 - 1934

"Danseres op het toneel, in profiel" is a sketch by Dutch artist Isaac Israels. It features a dancer in profile, with their body elongated and rendered in a loose, expressive style. The work exemplifies Israels' interest in capturing the dynamism of movement, and his signature use of loose, gestural lines. The sketch, created in pencil on paper, is a study for a larger work and offers insight into Israels' artistic process. This piece, part of the Rijksmuseum collection, showcases the artist's keen observation and ability to convey a sense of energy and motion.
