Twee vrouwen en een kind in de tram c. 1892 - 1923

This quick sketch, “Twee vrouwen en een kind in de tram” (Two Women and a Child in the Tram), was created by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner between 1892 and 1923. The piece, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts three figures in a tram, their forms captured in rapid, gestural lines that suggest the movement of the vehicle. The sketch exemplifies Breitner's interest in capturing the energy and dynamism of modern life, as seen through the everyday scenes of Amsterdam.
