Untitled
1837
From the collection of Rijksmuseum
Untitled is a 1837 by Unknown, held at Rijksmuseum.
You see a small, smudged drawing of a woman’s face in profile. Her hair is pulled back, and her expression is calm, almost sleepy. This sketch was tucked inside a big book of drawings called the Atlas Van Eck. It’s one of thousands—no one knows who made it or why. The lines are loose, like the artist was practicing or just thinking out loud. To see more quick, quiet sketches like this, explore the Rijksmuseum’s online collection.
