Slak 1887 - 1924

"Slak" is a delicate pencil drawing by Dutch artist Julie de Graag, created sometime between 1887 and 1924. The small-scale artwork depicts a snail in profile, its shell meticulously rendered with subtle lines. The drawing showcases de Graag's keen eye for detail and her ability to capture the essence of nature through simple yet expressive lines. This study of a common creature, now in the collection of the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the artist's personal interests and her observation of the world around her.
