Eend en andere watervogel 1876 - 1924

"Eend en andere watervogel" (Duck and other waterfowl) is a pencil drawing by Dutch artist Gerrit Willem Dijsselhof, created between 1876 and 1924. The sketch, housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts two ducks, one standing and one lying down. The artist's meticulous detail in the feathers, the use of hatching, and the annotations with the words "vermilion" and "greente" reveal his interest in studying nature and its visual representation. This intimate study showcases the artist's observational skills and his keen eye for capturing the essence of his subjects.
