"Vignette" is a decorative design created by Dutch artist Julie de Graag. Dating back to the late 19th or early 20th century, this small-scale work features a delicate, linear motif of intertwining, organic shapes, possibly representing leaves or vines. Now in the Rijksmuseum, this "Vignette" exemplifies de Graag's attention to detail and her interest in decorative patterns.
