Drie mannenhoofden 1880 - 1882

"Drie mannenhoofden" (Three Men's Heads) is a charcoal drawing by George Hendrik Breitner, created between 1880 and 1882. The drawing, part of the Rijksmuseum collection, captures three heads in quick, expressive strokes. Breitner's style, known for its emphasis on light and shadow, is evident in this study, reflecting his fascination with the human form and the energy of urban life. The sketch provides a glimpse into Breitner's creative process and his ability to capture the essence of his subjects in a few simple lines.
