Meisje schrijvend aan een tafel bij lamplicht 1885 - 1931

"Meisje schrijvend aan een tafel bij lamplicht," created between 1885 and 1931 by Willem Bastiaan Tholen, is a charcoal drawing depicting a young woman seated at a table lit by a lamp, lost in concentration as she writes. The sketch's loose lines and subtle shading capture the intimate moment, emphasizing the quiet solitude of the scene. This drawing, housed in the Rijksmuseum, reflects Tholen's interest in everyday life, offering a glimpse into the world of domesticity in late 19th and early 20th-century Netherlands.
