Twee gezichten Possibly 1883 - 1885

"Twee gezichten" (Two Faces), a charcoal sketch by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, is a study of two faces, likely created between 1883 and 1885. Breitner was known for his realistic depictions of life in Amsterdam, often focusing on urban scenes and everyday people. This sketch, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into his artistic process, capturing fleeting moments of observation and exploration. The simplicity of the sketch, with its focus on lines and shading, provides a compelling study of human anatomy and expression.
