Vrouw met hoed met voile c. 1894

This charcoal sketch, titled "Vrouw met hoed met voile," is a striking example of Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner's quick, gestural style. Created in 1894, the piece captures a woman in profile, her head tilted upwards as if in contemplation. Her wide-brimmed hat casts a shadow over her face, emphasizing the fleeting nature of the moment. Breitner's use of bold lines and dynamic strokes create a sense of movement and energy, capturing the essence of his subject with captivating simplicity. The drawing is currently part of the Rijksmuseum collection.
