Zittende man en een mannenhoofd 1887 - 1891

This is a pencil sketch by the Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, created between 1887 and 1891. The drawing depicts a seated man, seen from the back, with a separate drawing of a man’s head above him. This sketch, likely done on location, displays the characteristic energetic, almost hurried style of Breitner's work, where quick, gestural lines capture the essence of his subjects. The piece demonstrates Breitner’s interest in capturing the fleeting moments of everyday life, as seen in the informal, unposed nature of the figures. This artwork can be viewed at the Rijksmuseum.
