Monnik 1728 - 1789

"Monnik" (Monk) is a drawing by Jacob Hoolaart, created between 1728 and 1789. The piece depicts a monk standing with his hands clasped, holding a rosary. The simple composition and detailed rendering of the monk's clothing and facial features convey a sense of piety and contemplation. The drawing is notable for its delicate lines and subtle shading, characteristics common in Hoolaart's work. It's a small-scale work, measuring only 103 mm in height and 73 mm in width.
