Studie 1881 - 1883

"Studie" is a pencil drawing by George Hendrik Breitner, created between 1881 and 1883. It is a quick sketch, likely made as a preliminary study for a larger work. The simple lines and loose composition suggest a focus on capturing the essence of the subject rather than realistic detail, which is typical of Breitner's style. This study, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the creative process of this Dutch artist known for his dynamic depictions of urban life.
