Figuren op straat 1887 - 1889

"Figuren op straat" (Figures on the Street) is a charcoal sketch by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, completed between 1887 and 1889. This work exemplifies Breitner's mastery of capturing everyday scenes in Amsterdam with a focus on the dynamism of urban life. The sketch depicts a fleeting moment in the city, showing figures interacting in the street, and is housed in the Rijksmuseum. The artist's loose and expressive style conveys the energy and movement of the city in a quick and suggestive manner.
