Vlechtwerk en een ornament met knoppen 1876 - 1924

"Vlechtwerk en een ornament met knoppen" (Braids and an Ornament with Knobs) is a pencil drawing created by Gerrit Willem Dijsselhof between 1876 and 1924. This artwork is a study of decorative patterns, typical of the artist's work, and showcases his interest in geometric designs. The drawing features three distinct sections, each representing a different motif: a series of vertical lines, a braided element, and an ornament adorned with knobs. This study of form and structure, executed with meticulous detail, reflects the influence of the Art Nouveau style. The artwork, housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers insight into Dijsselhof's artistic process and his exploration of ornamental motifs.
