Landschap met wolkenlucht 1880 - 1882

This is a pencil sketch by George Hendrik Breitner, a Dutch painter known for his expressive depictions of urban life. The artwork, titled "Landschap met wolkenlucht" (Landscape with Cloudy Sky), is a study of clouds in the sky, captured in a loose and gestural style. Breitner's quick, suggestive strokes reveal his interest in capturing the fleeting nature of light and atmosphere, a characteristic often found in Impressionist art. The sketch, dated 1880-1882, showcases Breitner's early exploration of landscape, and is now housed in the Rijksmuseum, offering a glimpse into the creative process of this celebrated artist.
