Danseres 1919

"Danseres" (1919) is a woodcut by Dutch artist Johannes Frederik Engelbert ten Klooster. The print depicts a stylized woman in a long dress, standing in front of a landscape with a mountain in the background. The simplified forms and bold black and white contrasts are characteristic of the artist's style, which was influenced by Art Nouveau and Expressionism. The composition is striking, with the figure of the woman taking center stage against the backdrop of the landscape. This artwork exemplifies ten Klooster's exploration of simplified forms, evocative landscapes, and bold black and white contrasts, which are key features of his artistic approach.
