Man en vrouw, op de rug gezien 1893 - 1894

This charcoal sketch, "Man en vrouw, op de rug gezien" by George Hendrik Breitner, is a quick study of two figures, likely a man and a woman, from the back. Created around 1893-1894, the work is a prime example of Breitner's quick, expressive style. His use of charcoal lines and the lack of detail captures the fleeting moment of their interaction in a dynamic way. The sketch is a reminder of the artist's fascination with everyday life in Amsterdam, and how he captured the essence of people moving through the urban landscape. This informal artwork is held in the prestigious Rijksmuseum, demonstrating its significance within the Dutch art world.
