Ontwerp voor wandschildering in de Beurs van Berlage: staande man met banderol 1869 - 1925

This pencil drawing by Antoon Derkinderen, created between 1869 and 1925, depicts a standing man holding a banner. The design, likely intended for a mural in the Beurs van Berlage, showcases Derkinderen's characteristic blend of Art Nouveau and historical influences. The figure, rendered with precise detail, embodies the symbolic and decorative qualities favored during this period. The flowing lines of the banner and the man's pose contribute to the dynamic and visually engaging composition. The artwork, a testament to Derkinderen's artistic talent and his contribution to the design of the Beurs van Berlage, offers a glimpse into the artistic sensibilities of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
