Houten bank met bezem, ton, kruik en klompen 1809 - 1854

"Houten bank met bezem, ton, kruik en klompen" (Wooden bench with a broom, barrel, jug and clogs) is a pencil drawing created by Dutch artist Cornelis de Kruyff in 1809 - 1854. This detailed study of everyday objects, part of a larger series of Dutch still lifes, now hangs in the Rijksmuseum. The drawing, with its emphasis on texture and light, showcases de Kruyff's keen eye for the ordinary and his mastery of realism. This is a fine example of a 19th-century still life, capturing the details of simple domestic items found in a Dutch home.
