"Mélisande bekijkt haar in het water gevallen ring 2" is an 1892 etching by Dutch artist Richard Nicolaüs Roland Holst, known for his symbolist and expressionistic style. The piece depicts a figure, likely Mélisande from Maurice Maeterlinck's play "Pelléas and Mélisande," gazing into a pool of water at the reflection of a ring, a symbol of lost love or a deeper meaning. The dark tones and intricate detail create a sense of mystery and melancholy, typical of Symbolist artwork.
