Twee vrouwen in de branding 1880 - 1882

"Twee vrouwen in de branding" is a pencil sketch by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, created between 1880 and 1882. The quick, gestural lines capture the fleeting movement of two women, their forms partially obscured by the water's spray. The dynamic composition and loose lines are characteristic of Breitner's style, which emphasized the spontaneity and energy of daily life. This sketch is a testament to Breitner's ability to capture the essence of a scene with a few simple strokes. The artwork can be viewed at the Rijksmuseum, a prominent art museum in Amsterdam.
