Bank c. 1925

"Bank" is a drawing by the anonymous Dutch artist known as Monogrammist HK, dating from around 1925. The artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a delicate sketch that showcases the artist's subtle use of lines and shading. While the subject matter is unclear, the faint traces of lines on the paper suggest a potential landscape or architectural scene. This piece exemplifies the minimalist aesthetic prevalent in early 20th-century Dutch art. The drawing, measuring 273 mm in height and 430 mm in width, invites viewers to engage with the subtle nuances of the artist's technique and the mystery of the unformed composition.
