Figuren in een kerk 1875 - 1934

"Figuren in een kerk" (Figures in a Church) is a charcoal drawing created by Isaac Israels sometime between 1875 and 1934. It's a quick sketch, likely a study for a larger work, capturing the impression of people in a church setting. The lines are loose and gestural, focusing on capturing the sense of light and shadow within the space. The work reflects Israels' interest in depicting everyday life, especially scenes of interior spaces and people interacting within them. The drawing is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
