"Staande figuur met gekruiste benen" is a pencil drawing created by Isaac Israels sometime between the 1910s and 1920s. It is a study of a single figure, lying down with crossed legs, drawn in a loose and expressive style characteristic of the artist. The sketch, now located in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into Israels' artistic process and his interest in capturing the human form in a dynamic and spontaneous manner.
