Wielrenner 1891 - 1941

"Wielrenner" is a pencil drawing on paper by Dutch artist Leo Gestel, created between 1891 and 1941. The drawing, which depicts a cyclist in motion, is a quick sketch, executed with loose lines and a sense of energy. The drawing captures a fleeting moment of action and showcases Gestel's interest in depicting the human form in movement. This intimate work, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, demonstrates the artist’s dynamic style and provides a glimpse into his artistic process.
