Figuren op straat 1886 - 1923

This small charcoal drawing titled "Figuren op straat" (Figures in the Street) by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner (1857-1923) is a quick sketch of people walking on a street, a common theme in his work. The artist is known for his impressionist style and dynamic compositions that capture the energy of everyday life in Amsterdam. The drawing's loose, expressive strokes and focus on light and shadow suggest a fleeting glimpse of a moment in time. The drawing is currently in the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
