Ontwerp voor een doopbeker 1874 - 1932

This pencil drawing by Dutch architect Mathieu Lauweriks is a design for a baptismal font. Created between 1874 and 1932, the design features a simple, geometric form, highlighting the clean lines characteristic of Lauweriks's style. The sketch depicts the font's shape, with a wide, flat top transitioning into a cylindrical body. The font’s round base is shown separately below. Lauweriks, known for his contributions to Dutch architecture and design, likely envisioned the font as a functional yet aesthetically pleasing object, a testament to his commitment to integrating art and craft.
