Abklatsch van de krijttekening op pagina 55 1901 - 1907

This charcoal drawing, created by Willem Witsen between 1901 and 1907, is a unique example of his work. It's a "rubbing," a technique where an artist uses a sheet of paper to transfer the texture of an object. The drawing is minimal, depicting a subtle play of light and shadow on the paper's surface. This work, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, demonstrates Witsen's interest in capturing the nuances of everyday objects, highlighting his ability to find beauty in the mundane.
