"Gezicht in Amsterdam" is a 1917 pencil sketch by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner. The artwork features a simple yet evocative scene, likely depicting a view of Amsterdam. The loose, gestural lines and sparse details suggest a quick and spontaneous sketch, perhaps capturing a fleeting moment of inspiration. The hazy background and focus on the tree's silhouette create a sense of atmospheric depth, typical of Breitner's style. This piece offers a glimpse into the artist's creative process and his fascination with the urban landscapes of his native Amsterdam.
