Schetsboek met 36 bladen 1883 - 1885

This sketch book, created between 1883 and 1885 by Dutch painter George Hendrik Breitner, provides a glimpse into the artist’s creative process. The worn leather cover, marked with the inscription "Hary 1883 K.", hints at the sketchbook's extensive use. The small size and worn cover suggest that this sketchbook was a personal tool for Breitner, allowing him to capture fleeting moments and experiment with various artistic ideas. The sketchbook is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, offering art enthusiasts a unique opportunity to witness the artistic development of this prominent Dutch painter.
