This quick sketch by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, titled "Vrouw met kind aan de Prinsengracht te Amsterdam, ter hoogte van de Passeerdersgracht," is a study of the everyday life of Amsterdam. Executed in charcoal on paper, the drawing captures a fleeting moment on the Prinsengracht canal, depicting a woman and child walking along the canal bank. Breitner was known for his impressionistic style and his ability to capture the atmosphere of Amsterdam, and this sketch exemplifies his artistic approach, with its loose, gestural lines. The sketch is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, offering art enthusiasts a glimpse into the artist's creative process and his fascination with the city.
