Persoon liggend in bed 1854 - 1914

"Persoon liggend in bed" is a charcoal drawing by Albert Neuhuys, created between 1854 and 1914. This intimate depiction of a woman reclining in bed, holding a book, captures the quiet solitude of everyday life. The loose, gestural lines and soft shading suggest a sense of relaxation and tranquility. Neuhuys was known for his realistic and often sentimental portrayals of Dutch domestic life. This drawing, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies his ability to capture the essence of human experience through simple, evocative means.
