Vijf zittende vrouwen 1911 - 1941

"Vijf zittende vrouwen" (Five Sitting Women) is a quick sketch by Dutch artist Leo Gestel, showcasing his signature expressive style. Created between 1911 and 1941, the drawing shows five figures in a variety of poses, captured with loose, gestural lines. The simplified forms and energetic lines highlight the movement and fluidity of the figures, typical of Gestel's work. This sketch is an excellent example of his ability to capture the essence of a subject with minimal detail. The artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam.
