Biography:
George Hendrik Breitner was born in Rotterdam and first studied in The Hague. His early work primarily depicted military and cavalry subjects. After visiting Paris in 1884, his work took on an Impressionist approach. Two years later, Breitner moved to Amsterdam where he painted his famous harbor scenes, cityscapes, and scenes of street life. He also took an interest in photography. In 1910, illness forced him to abandon painting.
