Bisonjagers 1872

"Bisonjagers" (1872) is a pencil drawing by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner (1857-1923). The artwork depicts a scene of bison hunting, with riders on horseback pursuing a herd of bison. The drawing is characterized by Breitner's signature use of loose, expressive lines and a sense of dynamism. This sketch, now part of the Rijksmuseum collection, offers a glimpse into the artist's early exploration of themes of movement and action.
