This black and white design by Carel Adolph Lion Cachet, created between 1874 and 1945, is a preliminary sketch for a vignette for a commemorative book honoring Queen Wilhelmina in 1923. The artwork depicts the virtues of Faith, Hope, and Love, represented by figures holding symbolic objects. It is part of the Rijksmuseum collection. The bold, simplified forms and stark contrast of black and white are characteristic of the Art Nouveau style. This artwork is a testament to the artistic talent of Carel Adolph Lion Cachet and his ability to capture the spirit of the time.
