Jonge vrouw in Brabantse klederdracht 1881 - 1883

This is a preliminary study of a young woman in traditional Brabant clothing, done in 1881-1883 by the Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner. The sketch is part of the Rijksmuseum collection, offering a glimpse into Breitner's creative process. Using loose, expressive lines, Breitner captures the essence of his subject, focusing on the form and silhouette of the figure. This is a testament to Breitner's mastery of drawing and his interest in everyday scenes.
