Ex libris van Christelijke Jongemannen Vereeniging Excelsior 1916

This is a woodcut ex libris by Carel Adolph Lion Cachet, created in 1916. The ex libris depicts a stylized figure standing in a landscape, surrounded by a border with the text 'Christelijke Jongemannen Vereeniging Excelsior.' The artist used a bold black and white contrast, a technique typical of woodcut printing, and the piece is notable for its intricate details and decorative elements. This ex libris, now in the Rijksmuseum collection, is a fine example of Cachet's work and reflects the artistic trends of the early 20th century.
