Schetsen van een vrouw die een groot pak draagt 1867 - 1923

"Schetsen van een vrouw die een groot pak draagt" (Sketches of a Woman Wearing a Large Package), a pencil drawing by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, depicts a woman in profile, seemingly carrying a large object, possibly a bundle of clothes. The sketch's loose and gestural lines capture the movement of the woman's body and the weight of the package she carries, highlighting Breitner's interest in capturing fleeting moments of everyday life. Breitner was known for his urban scenes and his use of light and shadow, and this sketch demonstrates his mastery of capturing the human figure in motion. The work is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
