The artwork serves as a commemorative piece for Dr. H.C. Rogge and exemplifies the Dutch artist's keen attention to detail and his mastery of ornamental design, a hallmark of Art Nouveau style. The drawing, measuring 370 mm in height and 238 mm in width, is likely intended for a personal album, showcasing the beauty of decorative art at the turn of the 20th century.
