Ontwerpen voor een salontafel c. 1930

"Ontwerpen voor een salontafel" (Designs for a coffee table), a c. 1930 work by Dutch artist Carel Adolph Lion Cachet, is a collection of preliminary sketches for a coffee table. The work consists of four simple, detailed drawings of the table in various views, done in pencil on paper. The minimalist style of the sketches is a hallmark of the Art Deco movement, which was popular in the Netherlands during the 1920s and 1930s. The Rijksmuseum currently houses this piece, offering a glimpse into Cachet's design process.
