This sketch by George Hendrik Breitner, titled "Mannenhoofden en twee figuren met bagage op hun rug," is a dynamic composition of quick, gestural lines. The artist, known for his plein air sketches, captured the essence of his subjects with minimal detail. The rough lines depict figures carrying luggage, likely ordinary citizens in the bustling streets of Amsterdam, a common theme in Breitner's work. This pencil drawing, dated c. 1882, showcases Breitner's mastery of capturing movement and urban life in a fleeting moment. The piece is held in the Rijksmuseum, a testament to its artistic merit and historical significance.
