Compositie-studies 1878 - 1938

This composition study, created by Dutch artist Richard Nicolaüs Roland Holst (1868-1938) between 1878 and 1938, showcases a figure reclining amidst wavy lines and a crescent moon. The minimalist black and white palette and geometric lines are characteristic of Holst's style, which often explored themes of nature and the human form. The study likely served as preparatory work for a larger artwork. The composition is held in the Rijksmuseum, a testament to Holst's enduring legacy in Dutch art history.
