Ontwerp voor een vaas 1874 - 1945

This design for a vase, created by Dutch artist Carel Adolph Lion Cachet between 1874 and 1945, showcases the artist's exploration of simplified forms and decorative elements. The black ink drawing, held in the Rijksmuseum, features a stylized, rounded vase decorated with bold, curving lines and circular motifs reminiscent of stylized flowers. This design exemplifies the trend of decorative art in the early 20th century, where artists emphasized geometric shapes and patterns inspired by nature. Cachet's design for this vase is a testament to the enduring influence of simplified aesthetics in art.
