Abklatsch van de krijttekeningen op pagina 2 c. 1897 - 1898

This faint, barely-visible drawing is an example of a *rubbing* by Willem Witsen, a prominent Dutch artist. The work is a transfer from a chalk drawing on page two of an unknown sketchbook, and features faint traces of lines and textures. It was likely created as a quick study or preliminary sketch for a larger piece. The work dates from the late 19th century, and is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
