Studie c. 1886 - 1934

"Studie" is a study by Isaac Israels, a prominent Dutch painter known for his realist style. The artwork, dated c. 1886-1934, is a pencil sketch, possibly a preliminary study for a larger work. This is a rare example of Israels’s sketching process, offering insight into his artistic development. The sketch depicts an anatomical study, likely of a human figure, but it's hard to discern the subject due to its abstract nature and incomplete nature. It is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, a renowned art museum in Amsterdam.
