George Hendrik Breitner (Rotterdam, September 12, 1857 - Amsterdam, June
5, 1923) was a Dutch painter, famous for his view of Amsterdam city
life. His work is related to that of the 'Eighties', a group of artists
with great influence on the Dutch art world during the eighties of the
nineteenth century. Painters like Isaac Israels, Willem Witsen, and
poets like Willem Kloos and Louis of Deyssel belonged to his circle.
