Patroontekening voor een damasten servet met dessin "Haantjes". c. 1906

This is a design for a damask napkin featuring a "Haantjes" or "Rooster" pattern, created by Dutch artist Chris Lebeau in 1906. The design features a stylized rooster motif, rendered in a bold, geometric style characteristic of the Art Nouveau movement. The use of a grid system in the design reflects the emphasis on precision and craftsmanship prevalent in this era. The drawing, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into Lebeau's textile designs, showcasing his interest in creating functional objects with artistic merit.
