Boekversieringen 1874 - 1924

"Boekversieringen" is a collection of decorative designs by Dutch artist Gerrit Willem Dijsselhof, created between 1874 and 1924. The intricate patterns, featuring floral motifs, geometric elements, and stylized birds, are characteristic of the Art Nouveau style. These designs were intended for bookbinding and other decorative purposes, reflecting Dijsselhof's dedication to the art of craftsmanship. The collection, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, provides insight into the decorative arts of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
