Zeilschepen 1900 - 1931

"Zeilschepen" is a pencil drawing by Dutch artist Willem Bastiaan Tholen, created between 1900 and 1931. The piece depicts the outline of a ship's sail, captured with quick, gestural lines. It is a sketch-like study, reflecting Tholen's interest in capturing the essence of his subject rather than meticulous detail. The artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, gives viewers insight into the artist's working process and his fascination with the maritime world.
