Fragment gebatikte textiel, voorstellende een Oosterse krijger met schild, in blauw, zwart en rood. c. 1892

This batik textile fragment, created by Carel Adolph Lion Cachet around 1892, depicts an "Eastern warrior" with a shield. The artwork features bold, stylized forms and a limited color palette of blue, black, and red. The use of batik, a wax-resist dyeing technique, creates a textured surface and adds depth to the design. This fragment, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is an example of Cachet's interest in exotic themes and decorative patterns, which were popular artistic trends in the late 19th century.
