Ornament met bladeren c. 1910

"Ornament met bladeren" (Ornament with Leaves), created around 1910 by Dutch artist Bernard Willem Wierink (1856-1939), is a striking example of geometric abstraction. The artwork, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, features a repeating pattern of stylized leaves and geometric shapes in a bold red and white color scheme. This intricate design showcases Wierink's interest in exploring patterns and rhythms within a limited palette, a hallmark of his work.
