Studieblad met figuren 1881 - 1883

"Studie blad met figuren" is a preliminary sketch by George Hendrik Breitner, created between 1881 and 1883. The sketch, part of the Rijksmuseum collection, showcases Breitner's use of loose, gestural lines to capture the essence of figures and their environment. The work reveals the artist's process of observation and experimentation as he explored composition and form. The sketch, likely created in preparation for a larger work, offers a glimpse into Breitner's working methods and his interest in capturing the dynamic nature of human movement within the urban landscape.
