Vrouw met hoed op straat 1898

"Vrouw met hoed op straat" (Woman with Hat on the Street), created in 1898 by British artist William Nicholson, showcases the artist's mastery of simplified forms and bold lines characteristic of the graphic style of the time. The woodblock print depicts a woman with a large hat walking past a man with a donkey, rendered in a limited palette with contrasting areas of dark and light, further emphasizing the figure's silhouette. This piece exemplifies Nicholson's unique approach to capturing everyday scenes with a sense of both elegance and simplicity, reflecting the artistic trends of late 19th-century Britain.
