Figuren, mogelijk in een open rijtuig c. 1886 - 1903

This is a charcoal sketch by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, dated to between 1886 and 1903. It is part of a sketchbook and depicts figures in a carriage, likely a scene from daily life in Amsterdam, a frequent subject for Breitner. His use of quick, gestural lines captures the movement of the figures and creates a sense of spontaneity. The sketch is a precursor to the artist's later paintings, and reveals his artistic process. The Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam houses this work.
