Ontwerp voor In Holland staat een Huis: silhouet van een dienstmeid 1884 - 1917

This silhouette drawing by Nelly Bodenheim, titled "Ontwerp voor In Holland staat een Huis: silhouet van een dienstmeid," depicts a maid holding a broom and dustpan. This design was intended for a children's book published between 1884 and 1917. The simple, black-and-white style evokes the traditional art of silhouette making, which often captured the essence of a subject in a minimal and evocative manner. Bodenheim's work, now held in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the artistic trends of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, which saw a renewed interest in traditional art forms.
