Vier figuurstudies 1880 - 1923

"Vier figuurstudies" is a pencil drawing by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, created between 1880 and 1923. The artwork, housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a study of four figures, likely sketched from life. Breitner's loose, gestural lines capture the movement and informality of his subjects. The work highlights the artist's mastery of capturing fleeting moments in everyday life through quick, expressive strokes. The figures, depicted from the back and side, give viewers a glimpse into the daily interactions of people in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
