Studie van een vogel 1876 - 1924

"Studie van een vogel" is a study of a bird, a preliminary sketch by Dutch artist Gerrit Willem Dijsselhof, created between 1876 and 1924. The work, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases Dijsselhof's meticulous attention to detail in capturing the skeletal structure of the avian subject. The delicate lines and subtle washes on paper, characteristic of his style, convey the dynamic energy of a bird in flight, even though the drawing remains unfinished.
