Cavalry Scene is a 1900 by George Hendrik Breitner, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a row of horses and riders moving in a line. The background is rough, with wavy lines that look like grass or water. The horses are drawn quickly, almost like scribbles, and the whole scene feels busy. The stamp in the corner says "Atelier G.H. Breitner," which likely means the artist’s studio. The lines are uneven, giving it a sketchy, unfinished feel. Look up George Hendrik Breitner to see more of his work.
