"Gebouwen" is a pencil sketch on paper by George Hendrik Breitner, a prominent Dutch painter known for his urban landscapes. The artwork, dated c. 1915-1916, is a quick study of a building facade with windows and is characteristic of Breitner's sketchbooks, filled with fleeting observations of everyday life in Amsterdam. The Rijksmuseum houses this piece, offering a glimpse into Breitner's artistic process and his fascination with the city's architecture.
