Twee oude vrouwen in de Kalverstraat te Amsterdam c. 1886 - 1903

This charcoal drawing, titled "Twee oude vrouwen in de Kalverstraat te Amsterdam" (Two Old Women on the Kalverstraat in Amsterdam), is by Dutch painter George Hendrik Breitner, known for his depictions of city life. The sketch, likely made between 1886 and 1903, captures two figures walking in the busy Kalverstraat, a street in the heart of Amsterdam, with the iconic architecture in the background. Breitner's expressive style focuses on capturing the energy and movement of the scene, using loose strokes to portray the figures' fleeting presence. The drawing is now part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum.
