Figuren in zeventiende-eeuwse kleding 1852 - 1859

"Figuren in zeventiende-eeuwse kleding" (Figures in 17th-century clothing) is a watercolor sketch created by Dutch artist Cornelis Springer between 1852 and 1859. The drawing depicts a group of figures dressed in 17th-century clothing, a popular theme in Springer's work. This sketch, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, is likely a study for a larger painting. Springer is known for his historical paintings and portraits, often featuring Dutch historical figures and events. The style of the drawing is characteristic of Springer's approach, depicting figures in detail with delicate brushstrokes.
