Figuren op het Rokin te Amsterdam 1893

"Figuren op het Rokin te Amsterdam" is a charcoal drawing by Dutch painter George Hendrik Breitner, created in 1893. This work depicts people in the Rokin, a street in Amsterdam. The drawing is a quick sketch, captured in a loose, expressive style, characteristic of Breitner's work. The artist's emphasis on the figures and their interaction within the street scene, rather than realistic detail, highlights the bustling life of Amsterdam at the end of the 19th century. This drawing, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into Breitner's creative process and his fascination with capturing the movement and energy of city life.
