Studies 1887 - 1891

"Studies" is a collection of sketches by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, created between 1887 and 1891. The artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. The sketches, made in a loose and expressive style, capture the fleeting moments of everyday life, showcasing the artist's mastery of capturing movement and light. These studies likely served as preparatory works for larger paintings, providing a glimpse into Breitner's artistic process. The sketches depict various subjects, including a person, a lamp, and a tree, showcasing the artist's ability to capture the essence of each subject with a few simple lines.
