This design for a vignette, created by Carel Adolph Lion Cachet between 1874 and 1945, features a stylized ship sailing through choppy waters, surrounded by intricate, abstract motifs. The design, a blend of geometric and organic shapes, is executed in a striking contrast of blue and gold, showcasing the artist's unique artistic style. This artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, likely served as a visual emblem for the Dutch shipping company, K.P.M. Lines, reflecting the company's maritime prowess and global reach.
