Ruiters 1884 - 1886

"Ruiters" is a pencil drawing by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, created between 1884 and 1886. Currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, this piece showcases Breitner's distinctive style with its loose, gestural lines and emphasis on capturing a fleeting moment. The subject matter, likely a group of horsemen, is rendered in a dynamic and expressive manner, reflecting Breitner's fascination with urban life and movement. This drawing is a testament to Breitner's mastery of capturing both the energy and the essence of his surroundings.
