Interieur met jongen zittend aan een tafel 1834 - 1911

"Interieur met jongen zittend aan een tafel" (Interior with a boy sitting at a table) is a pen and ink drawing by Jozef Israëls, dating from 1834 to 1911. The artwork, currently held in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a simple interior scene with a young boy seated at a table. The artist’s use of hatching and crosshatching creates a sense of depth and texture, highlighting the everyday details of the scene, typical of Israëls’ realistic style. This intimate, yet subtly composed drawing, exemplifies Israëls's focus on capturing the essence of everyday life, particularly within humble interiors.
