"Aangemeerde schepen in Amsterdam" is a charcoal drawing on paper by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, depicting a view of ships moored in Amsterdam. Created between 1892 and 1923, the artwork is a quick sketch, characterized by loose, gestural lines and a sense of immediacy. Breitner was known for his depictions of daily life in Amsterdam, often capturing the city's atmosphere through his use of light and shadow. This drawing, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into Breitner's artistic process and his fascination with the urban landscape.
