About the piece
Created by George Hendrik Breitner around 1901, this oil study captures the essence of Amsterdam's architecture with striking modernity. The artist uses a palette of warm ochres, deep browns, and cool greys to define the gabled rooftops and facades, characteristic of the Amsterdam Impressionism movement.
