"Wandbespanning" (Wall Covering) is a 1911-1915 textile design by Dutch artist Chris Lebeau, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. Lebeau was a prominent figure in the Dutch Arts and Crafts movement, known for his intricate and stylized designs. The piece features a repeating pattern of stylized foliage in shades of green and white, evoking a sense of organic rhythm and natural beauty. It is a fine example of Art Nouveau style, a movement that emphasized flowing lines, natural forms, and decorative motifs.
