Staande vrouw in een gewaad 1873

This pencil sketch titled "Staande vrouw in een gewaad" (Standing Woman in a Robe) by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, was created in 1873. The drawing is a study of a woman in a flowing robe, capturing her pose and the drapery of her clothing. The simplicity of the composition and the expressive lines of the drawing demonstrate Breitner's early mastery of figurative art. This piece, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies Breitner's interest in the human form and his unique artistic style, which was influenced by Impressionism.
