Crème zijden satijnlint c. 1925

This piece, "Crème zijden satijnlint," a simple roll of cream-colored silk ribbon, was created around 1925 by Gustav Schnitzler. It is a testament to the everyday objects that can hold artistic value, exemplifying the minimalist aesthetic that was gaining popularity at the time. The smooth texture of the silk and the gentle curve of the ribbon suggest a sense of elegance and refinement, making it a compelling object for the viewer to consider. This artwork, now in the Rijksmuseum, offers a unique perspective on the art of everyday life.
