Figuur met een opgeheven rechterhand 1890 - 1946

"Figuur met een opgeheven rechterhand" is a simple yet expressive drawing by Dutch artist Cornelis Vreedenburgh, created between 1890 and 1946. The work showcases a single figure, depicted in profile, their right hand raised with an open palm, as if gesturing or speaking. This minimalist approach highlights the expressive power of line and captures the essence of a fleeting moment. The drawing, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies Vreedenburgh's ability to convey emotions and gestures through his distinctive style of linework.
