Stadsgezicht met figuren, mogelijk te Amsterdam c. 1896 - 1903

This sketch, "Stadsgezicht met figuren, mogelijk te Amsterdam," by George Hendrik Breitner, is a quick, gestural study of a cityscape, likely of Amsterdam, executed in charcoal on paper. Dated between 1896 and 1903, it is a small-scale work, characteristic of Breitner's artistic practice of capturing fleeting impressions of urban life. Though incomplete, the drawing suggests a dynamic and bustling scene, hinting at the vibrancy of Amsterdam at the turn of the 20th century. This piece is housed in the Rijksmuseum, a testament to the museum's extensive collection of Dutch art.
