Figuur zittend op een fazant op het strand c. 1925

"Figuur zittend op een fazant op het strand" is a woodcut by Dutch artist Bernard Essers, created around 1925. The artwork depicts a stylized figure sitting atop a pheasant, with a swirling background suggesting the sea. Essers' use of strong black and white contrasts and simplified forms, characteristic of the Art Deco movement, gives the image a bold and graphic quality. The subject matter, a figure on a fantastical creature, adds a surreal element, further enhancing the unique artistic vision of this print.
