Ontwerpen voor het onderstel van een doopvont c. 1905 - 1906

Carel Adolph Lion Cachet's "Ontwerpen voor het onderstel van een doopvont" (c. 1905-1906), a series of pencil sketches depicting the base of a baptismal font, highlights the artist's interest in Art Nouveau design. The sketches showcase different configurations of the base, all featuring intricate, flowing lines and a sense of organic form. The details in the sketches, particularly the base designs with their intertwined elements, reveal Cachet's meticulous approach and his exploration of structural possibilities for the baptismal font. This design sketch, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into Cachet's artistic process and his contributions to the Art Nouveau movement.
