Studie c. 1923 - 1934

"Studie" is a charcoal drawing by Isaac Israels, created sometime between 1923 and 1934. The drawing, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, features a dynamic interplay of lines and shading, suggesting a study for a larger work. While the subject remains unclear, the abstract and gestural style evokes a sense of movement and energy, characteristic of Israels' later works. This study exemplifies the artist's exploration of form and expression through the evocative use of charcoal.
