"Staande man in oosterse kleding" is a pencil drawing by Dutch painter George Hendrik Breitner, created sometime between 1871 and 1876. The work depicts a man standing in what appears to be traditional Eastern garb, possibly inspired by Breitner's travels to the Middle East. The drawing is a study for a larger work and demonstrates Breitner's interest in capturing the human form with a loose and expressive style, typical of his early work. This quick sketch is currently part of the Rijksmuseum's collection in Amsterdam.
