"Twee landschappen met een wolkenlucht" (Two landscapes with a cloudy sky) is a pencil sketch by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, created between 1886 and 1923, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. The artwork captures the essence of Breitner's signature style, utilizing quick, gestural strokes to convey a sense of spontaneity and immediacy. This sketchbook work, likely a study for a larger piece, showcases the artist's keen observation of nature, evident in the dynamic representation of the landscapes, and the suggestion of a cloudy sky through swift, energetic lines.
