This is a design for a book cover by Dutch artist Jan Toorop, created before 1899. The cover is for Henri Borel's book "Een Droom" ("A Dream"). The design is characteristic of Toorop's style, which is influenced by Symbolism and Art Nouveau. It features intricate line work and organic shapes, creating a sense of fluidity and movement. The design is dominated by the stylized letters that form the title of the book, which are integrated with decorative elements, such as a figure in a landscape and a mythical creature, likely a unicorn. The design reflects the themes of fantasy and imagination often found in Symbolist literature. This design is now part of the Rijksmuseum collection.
