In the last years of Sees Vlag's life, operating the printing press became too heavy. That's why he threw himself into drawing. Cloudy skies in particular. With a small part of the city visible at the bottom, mostly from The Hague. Where the cloudy skies in Sees Vlag's linocuts served as an illustration, it is the other way around in his drawings. Once one knows these drawings, and one looks at the sky, one will sometimes find oneself thinking: 'yes, I know that sky from Sees Vlag!' Pulchri exhibited an overview of these drawings in 2015.
