Servet van linnendamast met meidoorns 1900 - 1925

This linen damask tablecloth, "Servet van linnendamast met meidoorns," designed by Chris Lebeau, is a fine example of Dutch Art Nouveau textile design. The tablecloth is adorned with a repeating pattern of stylized hawthorn blossoms, which are woven into the fabric. This design, which evokes the natural world, exemplifies Art Nouveau's emphasis on organic forms and flowing lines. The piece, dating from 1900-1925, is a testament to Lebeau’s mastery of textile design and is now part of the Rijksmuseum's collection in the Netherlands.
