Schetsboek met 48 bladen c. 1883 - 1885

This is a sketchbook by Dutch painter George Hendrik Breitner, created between 1883 and 1885. It's a small, rectangular object with a plain, tan canvas cover. The image shows the cover of the sketchbook and its worn surface, and it's likely that Breitner used it to capture various scenes and ideas in his daily life. This sketchbook is a valuable insight into the working process of the artist, revealing his creative thoughts and techniques, and is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
