Amsterdam, Netherlands
The owner is known. Whether it is on view today, the museum does not say, and we were not trained to guess.
De Gheyn has here drawn the same model in three different poses. He sometimes re-used figure studies such as this one in larger compositions. For example, he reintroduced the left figure – seen at an angle from the back with his arms crossed behind him – in the adjacent drawing, in which he assumes the guise of a farmhand.
