Daken met schoorstenen 1881 - 1883

"Daken met schoorstenen" (Roofs with Chimneys) is a pencil drawing by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, created between 1881 and 1883 and now housed in the Rijksmuseum. The artwork captures the essence of urban architecture with its minimalist lines and focus on the geometric forms of rooftops and chimneys. This quick sketch showcases Breitner's ability to capture the essence of his surroundings with precise lines and shadowing, a hallmark of his later, more elaborate urban scenes.
