"Twee gevels" (Two Facades) is a charcoal drawing on paper by Dutch artist Willem Witsen, created sometime between 1870 and 1923. The drawing depicts a close-up view of two building facades, likely from Amsterdam's historic canals. Witsen, known for his realistic depictions of everyday life, captures the gritty detail of these buildings, emphasizing their textures and worn surfaces. The drawing currently resides in the Rijksmuseum.
