"Drie kinderen bekijken een spiegel bij een schouw" is a c. 1858 pencil sketch by Dutch artist Bastiaan de Poorter. This drawing, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, shows the artist's fascination with capturing fleeting moments of domestic life. The loose, gestural lines suggest a quick sketch, capturing a group of children gathered around a mirror. The sketch likely served as a study for a more finished work, showcasing de Poorter's exploration of light and shadow.
