Groepsportret van de drie kinderen Beels 1774 - 1837

This 18th century charcoal drawing by Charles Howard Hodges is a poignant portrait of three children, likely the Beels siblings. The intimate composition, with the children looking away from the viewer and towards a shared object, captures the tenderness and innocence of childhood. The delicate shading and subtle details in the clothing add depth and realism to the artwork, highlighting the artist's mastery of drawing. The artwork, housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases Hodges' talent for capturing the quiet moments of family life.
