Zittende oudere vrouw aan een tafel en kippen 1885 - 1931

This is a pencil drawing by Willem Bastiaan Tholen, a Dutch painter and draftsman, that was created sometime between 1885 and 1931. The drawing is housed in the Rijksmuseum and depicts a seated elderly woman at a table, perhaps a sketch for a larger composition. The image is primarily focused on a sketch of a seated woman, whose figure is drawn upside down, with a cluster of birds on the right side of the image. The work appears to be a study, likely completed as part of a larger series of drawings.
