"Portret van een onbekende vrouw" is a charcoal drawing on paper by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner. It is a portrait of an unknown woman, depicted in a striking, almost distorted pose, with her head tilted back. Breitner's loose, expressive lines capture the essence of the sitter's features, making the piece a powerful example of his expressive and dynamic style, as well as his interest in portraying the people of Amsterdam in their natural settings. The artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
