Willem Witsen's charcoal drawing "Staande figuur," created between 1886 and 1891, depicts a single standing figure rendered in expressive, gestural strokes. Witsen, known for his portrayal of everyday life, captured the figure's form in a dynamic pose, using the dark charcoal to evoke a sense of depth and shadow. The simple composition and the minimal details highlight the figure's presence, making it a powerful study of the human form. The drawing is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
