Studie, vermoedelijk een dier 1914 - 1916

This is a pencil sketch by Willem Cornelis Rip, dated between 1914 and 1916. The composition is of a simple, expressive line drawing, perhaps a quick study of a creature or animal. The artist's signature is prominent in the lower right corner of the page. Though the subject is unclear, this piece reflects Rip's keen eye for capturing the essence of his subject in a few gestural lines. The inscription on the page, "Gration Sas Hollandish disp" refers to an event, perhaps a celebration, in the land of Kuyk.
