Naakte vrouw met spiegel en weegschaal 1915

"Naakte vrouw met spiegel en weegschaal" (1915) by Bernard Willem Wierink (1856-1939) is a woodcut depicting a nude woman holding a mirror and scales. This piece, housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases Wierink's distinctive style, characterized by stylized forms and bold lines. The use of a single color and a limited color palette adds to the artwork's minimalist aesthetic, reminiscent of Art Nouveau. The composition, with the woman dominating the space, evokes a sense of mystery and contemplation, a common theme in Wierink's work.
