Lightly colored drawing on paper, original frame and behind glass A small, extraordinarily beautiful and fine and face drawing of Aaltje who looks at us with a sweet and serious look. Aaltje's children Geesje and Willem Maurits believe that in that period (1924) Aaltje was sad because of a broken engagement with, or the death (by TBC) of a doctor, Henk van Deventer.
