Ontwerp van een schrijfvoorbeeld: Sehen (...) 1605

This intricate pen and ink drawing, "Ontwerp van een schrijfvoorbeeld: Sehen (...)", is a testament to the skill of Dutch artist Jan van de Velde I. Created in 1605, the piece showcases the artist's mastery of calligraphy and ornamental design. The delicate curls and swirls are a striking example of the elaborate flourishes popular in the early 17th century. The piece, held in the Rijksmuseum, serves as both a beautiful and instructive example of penmanship during this period.
