"Lezende vrouw op een kruk aan het strand" (Woman reading on a stool at the beach) is a quick sketch by Cornelis Vreedenburgh, created between 1890 and 1946. This artwork, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, captures the essence of a woman in a wide-brimmed hat seated on a folding stool while reading. Vreedenburgh's style is characterized by loose, expressive lines and a focus on capturing the fleeting moments of everyday life. The sketch is a testament to the artist's keen observation and ability to convey personality through simple, yet evocative strokes.
