Vrouw met kapje, van voren, ten halven lijve 1834 - 1911

This pencil drawing, titled "Vrouw met kapje, van voren, ten halven lijve," depicts a woman with a cap, seen from the front and from the waist up. The work, created by Jozef Israëls between 1834 and 1911, demonstrates the artist's masterful use of line and shading. The woman's face, rendered with a delicate touch, expresses a quiet introspection, making this a poignant portrayal of everyday life. The piece is currently part of the Rijksmuseum collection.
