This charcoal drawing, titled "Studie voor een portret van een vader met zijn zoon" by Hendrik Pothoven, depicts a father and son in a seated pose. The artist, active in the late 18th century, utilizes simple lines and shading to capture the figures' forms. This preliminary study, likely created for a larger portrait, offers a glimpse into Pothoven's process and highlights his skill in capturing likeness and movement within a sketch. The work, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, demonstrates the enduring power of pencil drawing as a tool for artistic exploration.
