The Singel Bridge at the Paleisstraat in Amsterdam, 1898. Breitner often took photos when preparing a painting. Several preparatory photos for this painting are also known. The way the woman is walking directly towards us and the way the picture is cropped gives it a photographic feel. Originally, Breitner's subject was a maid, but following the negative response of the art dealer who sold his work, Breitner turned her into a lady.
