Staande man en vrouw, mogelijk achter een gordijn 1875 - 1934

"Staande man en vrouw, mogelijk achter een gordijn" is a charcoal drawing by Isaac Israels, created between 1875 and 1934. The work, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a man and a woman standing behind a curtain, their figures obscured by the drapery. The artist's loose, gestural style, evident in the loose, expressive strokes, gives the work an impressionistic quality. The drawing showcases Israels' mastery of charcoal, creating a sense of depth and movement within the composition. This sketch serves as a testament to Israels' artistic process, offering a glimpse into the artist's exploration of figure and form.
