Groep figuren in zeventiende-eeuwse kleding c. 1846 - 1882

Cornelis Springer, a Dutch painter known for his drawings and watercolors, created this sketch titled "Groep figuren in zeventiende-eeuwse kleding" (Group of figures in 17th-century clothing) around 1846 to 1882. The watercolor depicts three figures dressed in 17th-century clothing. The figure on the left, wearing a large red cape and a feathered hat, walks forward, while the figure in the center observes the man in the background, who is pushing a wheelbarrow. The sketch showcases Springer's talent for capturing the details of clothing and human interactions in a quick and informal style. It’s a fascinating glimpse into the artist’s creative process.
