Vaas met pijlkruid, waterlelies en vlinders 1895 - 1904

"Vaas met pijlkruid, waterlelies en vlinders" (Vase with Arrowhead, Water Lilies, and Butterflies), a Dutch ceramic vase produced by the Firma Wed. N.S.A. Brantjes en Co. between 1895 and 1904, exemplifies the Art Nouveau style. Its elongated form and stylized floral motifs, including water lilies, arrowhead plants, and butterflies, are characteristic of the movement's emphasis on organic and flowing lines. The intricate hand-painted details, with its vibrant blue, yellow, and green hues, create a sense of elegance and beauty. The vase's distinctive shape, featuring two gracefully curved handles, further adds to its aesthetic appeal.
