Stadsgezicht 1884 - 1886

"Stadsgezicht" is a pencil sketch created between 1884 and 1886 by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner. The work is a quick impression of an urban scene, likely in Amsterdam where Breitner lived and worked. This sketch is part of the artist's prolific output of urban studies, capturing the dynamism of everyday life in the city. The rough lines and gestural strokes of the drawing evoke a sense of movement and energy characteristic of the artist's style. The sketch can be viewed at the Rijksmuseum.
