"Dierstudies" (1876-1924), a collection of sketches by Dutch artist Gerrit Willem Dijsselhof (1866-1924), captures a menagerie of animals with simple yet expressive lines. On display at the Rijksmuseum, the drawing features a dog chasing another, a frog, a rooster, a chicken, a stork, and a cat. This intimate, small-scale work showcases Dijsselhof's talent for capturing the essence of his subjects with minimal detail, highlighting his unique artistic style.
