Studie c. 1886 - 1923

"Studie" is a graphite sketch on paper by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, created sometime between 1886 and 1923. The work is a simple but dynamic study of a reclining figure, possibly done as a preparatory study for a larger work. The sketch demonstrates Breitner's masterful use of line and tone to convey form and movement, a characteristic feature of his artistic style. "Studie" currently resides in the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
