April 1918

"April" is a woodcut print created in 1918 by Dutch artist Julie de Graag (1877-1924). This artwork, part of the Rijksmuseum collection, depicts a stylized flower with a focus on its geometric forms. The print is characterized by the bold use of black and white, typical of woodcut printing, with subtle hints of green adding depth and detail. This piece exemplifies De Graag's interest in Art Nouveau and its decorative motifs, showcasing the elegance of nature through a simplified and stylized lens.
