Studieblad, onder andere met kinderen en een lepel Possibly 1883 - 1886

"Studie blad, onder andere met kinderen en een lepel" (Study sheet, among other things with children and a spoon) is a pencil sketch by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, housed in the Rijksmuseum. This informal study sheet, likely dating to between 1883 and 1886, demonstrates Breitner's artistic process. The loose lines and minimal detail capture the fleeting moments of everyday life, including a profile of a child's head and a hand holding a spoon. Breitner's sketches, like this one, are essential for understanding his artistic development and the evolution of his unique realist style.
