"Twee mannenbustes" is a pencil drawing on paper by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, created between 1884 and 1886. The artwork, housed in the Rijksmuseum, features two quick sketches of male busts, possibly done from life. This is a typical example of Breitner's early work, characterized by his dynamic use of lines and his interest in capturing fleeting moments of urban life. The rough and expressive style is indicative of the artist's use of drawing as a means to study the human form and explore his artistic ideas.
