Trampaarden, mogelijk op de Dam te Amsterdam 1893 - 1899

"Trampaarden, mogelijk op de Dam te Amsterdam" is a preliminary sketch by Dutch painter George Hendrik Breitner (1857-1923). The sketch, dated between 1893 and 1899, shows the artist's early stages of planning a larger composition. The subject matter, likely a horse-drawn tram on Dam Square in Amsterdam, reflects Breitner's interest in capturing the dynamic scenes of everyday life in his city. This preparatory drawing, held in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the artist's meticulous approach to his work, where the focus is on capturing the movement and energy of urban life.
