Studieblad met kruiwagens c. 1902

"Studie blad met kruiwagens" is a pencil sketch by Dutch painter George Hendrik Breitner, dating back to 1902. The artwork depicts a series of studies of wheelbarrows in various angles and perspectives. Breitner, known for his urban realism, often incorporated simple everyday objects into his work. These studies, possibly preparatory for a larger painting, showcase his meticulous attention to detail and his interest in capturing the essence of objects from different angles. The quick, gestural lines of the sketch suggest a spontaneous observation of the wheelbarrows, hinting at Breitner's working process and artistic sensibility. This sketch is part of the collection of the Rijksmuseum, offering a glimpse into the artist's creative process.
