Onderarmen 1854 - 1914

"Onderarmen" is a study of two human forearms by Dutch artist Albert Neuhuys, dating from between 1854 and 1914. The sketch, displayed at the Rijksmuseum, is a quick and loose study of the human form executed in pencil and charcoal. The artist's focus on anatomical detail is evident in the precise rendering of the arms and hands. This piece serves as a testament to Neuhuys's keen eye and his dedication to capturing the intricacies of the human body, a common practice among Realist artists.
