Gewaadstudie 1846 - 1923

"Gewaadstudie" (Costume Study) is a detailed pencil drawing by Dutch artist Jacob Taanman, created between 1846 and 1923, and currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. The artwork depicts a female figure wearing a long, flowing gown, rendered in meticulous detail to capture the fabric's texture and movement. Taanman's mastery of draftsmanship is evident in the precise lines and subtle shading, creating a realistic and elegant portrayal of the garment. This study, likely created for a larger composition, exemplifies Taanman's interest in costume design and the human form.
