Hond, staand op een stoel 1884 - 1952

Reinier de Vries's "Hond, staand op een stoel" is a woodcut print that captures a simple yet endearing scene. The artist uses bold, black lines to create a silhouette of a dog standing on a chair, its stance and gaze hinting at a watchful presence. The minimalist aesthetic and stark contrast of the image lend a sense of quietude and observation. This small-scale artwork, measuring just 283mm in height and 201mm in width, is a testament to de Vries's skill in capturing everyday moments with powerful visual simplicity.
