Salome met Javaans hoofddeksel en bloemen in haar handen 1895

"Salome met Javaans hoofddeksel en bloemen in haar handen" is an 1895 lithograph by Belgian artist Armand Rassenfosse. The work depicts a woman in a Javanese headdress, her figure rendered in a delicate, almost ethereal style. The subject is Salome, a figure from the New Testament who is known for her dance and the beheading of John the Baptist. The work is a prime example of Rassenfosse's artistic style, which often depicted female figures in elegant poses with a focus on line and detail. The artwork exemplifies the Art Nouveau aesthetic and its fascination with exotic themes and the female form.
