Maaswerk c. 1850

"Maaswerk" (c. 1850) is a preparatory drawing by Pierre Joseph Hubert Cuypers, a prominent Dutch architect. The drawing depicts a collection of sketches for Gothic-style window designs, showcasing the intricate tracery and decorative elements typical of this architectural style. These studies, likely intended for a larger project, demonstrate Cuypers' mastery of detail and his keen eye for Gothic aesthetics. The drawing is housed in the Rijksmuseum, offering a glimpse into Cuypers' creative process and the development of his architectural vision.
