Landschap met wolkenlucht 1886 - 1903

"Landschap met wolkenlucht" is a pencil sketch by Dutch painter George Hendrik Breitner. The artwork, created between 1886 and 1903, is currently in the collection of the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. The sketch depicts a landscape with a cloudy sky, rendered with loose strokes and suggestive shapes. Breitner's masterful use of line and shading creates a sense of atmospheric depth and movement, capturing the fleeting essence of a natural scene. This study exemplifies Breitner's practice of sketching outdoors, capturing the fleeting impressions of light and weather in a quick and expressive manner.
