Studieblad met kinderen 1880 - 1882

"Studie blad met kinderen," a pencil sketch by George Hendrik Breitner, is a study of the human form. Dating from 1880-1882, it shows several figures drawn in a loose and expressive style characteristic of the artist's work. The figures, likely children, are shown in various poses and angles, perhaps a glimpse into Breitner's early observational practice. This preliminary sketch, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, highlights the artist's process and his interest in capturing the energy and spontaneity of movement.
