Letterontwerp voor een boek gepubliceerd door dr. P. Kieft 1884 - 1952

This is a design by Reinier Willem Petrus de Vries, a Dutch artist known for his calligraphic work. The design, created between 1884 and 1952, features a title page layout for a book published by Dr. P. Kieft, likely a collection of German literature. De Vries’s distinctive style is evident in the elegant, stylized font, which reads "Deutsche Bücherei herausgegeben von Dr. P. Kieft," and the intricate, decorative flourish beneath the title. This work demonstrates de Vries’s mastery of calligraphy, and it reflects his skill in book design.
