This ex libris, or bookplate, was designed by Dutch artist Simon Moulijn between 1876 and 1926 for Henriëtte Haitsma Mulier and Simon Moulijn. The design features a simple yet elegant fountain with a circular basin, positioned between two stylized trees. The minimalist style of the work and the careful use of lines creates a sense of tranquility and refinement. This ex libris, now in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to the artistic talent of Moulijn and his ability to capture the essence of a personal mark with such subtle beauty.
