Kruis met ouroboros 1874 - 1932

"Kruis met ouroboros" is a woodcut created by Dutch artist Mathieu Lauweriks between 1874 and 1932. The artwork features a stylized, winged figure holding a cross within a circle that is surrounded by four ouroboros, or snakes eating their own tails. This image exemplifies Lauweriks's interest in symbolic representations and the fusion of religious and mystical themes. The geometric patterns and linear design are characteristic of his work, which was influenced by Art Nouveau and the Symbolist movement.
