This anonymous print, created sometime between 1880 and 1900, showcases a detailed illustration of an open book resting on a table with a cross hanging off the edge. The book's cover features a stylized inscription that includes the name "L. Claessens & Fils" and a list of awards and accolades. The print's intricate details and the inscription suggest it may be an advertisement for a bookbinding company or a book dealer. This print, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into the craftsmanship and commercialism of the late 19th century.
