Roeiboten op een rivier langs enkele huizen 1885 - 1931

"Roeiboten op een rivier langs enkele huizen" is a charcoal drawing by Dutch artist Willem Bastiaan Tholen, dating from 1885 to 1931. The artwork, currently held in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a river scene with rowing boats and houses in the background. Tholen, known for his impressionistic style, utilizes gestural lines and hatching techniques to capture the fleeting light and movement of the river scene. The sketch, with its loose and expressive lines, demonstrates Tholen's interest in capturing the essence of a moment rather than precise details.
