Atelier 1890

"Atelier" is an etching created in 1890 by Dutch artist Floris Verster. It depicts a shadowy interior, likely Verster's own art studio, with a prominent vase of flowers on a table against a dark background. The use of etching as a medium, with its characteristic scratched lines, lends a sense of depth and texture to the work. The subject matter, an artist's workspace, is a common theme in Verster's oeuvre, offering a glimpse into his creative process and the objects that inspired his art. This small-scale artwork, measuring just 248 mm by 162 mm, can be found at the Rijksmuseum in the Netherlands.
