This charcoal sketch by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, titled "Gezicht op de toren van de Grote Kerk in Dordrecht" (View of the Tower of the Great Church in Dordrecht), is a study of the iconic church tower in Dordrecht, Netherlands. The sketch, completed in 1906, captures the essence of the building's structure through loose, gestural lines, highlighting the artist's interest in capturing the essence of the subject rather than exact detail. This work, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, reveals Breitner's skill in expressing the atmosphere and essence of a place through a simple yet evocative sketch.
