Gezicht in de Baanbrugsteeg te Amsterdam 1886 - 1910

"Gezicht in de Baanbrugsteeg te Amsterdam" is a black and white photograph by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, depicting a narrow alleyway in Amsterdam. The photograph, now located in the Rijksmuseum, captures the stark beauty of the city's architecture with a focus on the play of light and shadow in the alley. Breitner's work, a quintessential example of Dutch Impressionism, exemplifies the movement's focus on capturing everyday life in a realistic and expressive manner. His use of light and shadow to create depth and mood is a signature of his style.
