Landschap 1883 - 1885

"Landschap" is a preliminary sketch by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, created between 1883 and 1885. The artwork, currently held in the Rijksmuseum, displays a simplified, gestural style, suggesting an initial exploration of a landscape scene. This delicate pencil sketch, likely a quick study for a larger painting, reveals Breitner's observational approach and his interest in capturing the essence of a location through rapid, expressive lines.
