Figuren aan het werk op het land c. 1882 - 1884

"Figuren aan het werk op het land" is a charcoal drawing by Willem Witsen, created sometime between 1882 and 1884. The artwork depicts figures working in the fields, captured in a loose and expressive style. The artist's use of charcoal creates a sense of immediacy and movement, conveying the arduous nature of farm labor. The piece, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies Witsen's interest in social realism, offering a glimpse into the daily lives of ordinary Dutch people.
