Figuren, mogelijk kinderen, voor een gebouw c. 1902

This charcoal sketch, *Figuren, mogelijk kinderen, voor een gebouw* (Figures, Possibly Children, in Front of a Building), was created by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner around 1902. The drawing, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, depicts a scene with multiple figures, possibly children, situated in front of a building. Breitner was known for his bold, expressive style and his depictions of everyday life in Amsterdam. This sketch showcases his ability to capture the essence of a scene with a few, quick strokes, demonstrating his mastery of composition and observation.
