Meiboom 1930

"Meiboom" is a woodcut print created by Dutch artist Fré Cohen in 1930. This artwork depicts a festive scene of people dancing around a maypole adorned with flowers and ribbons. The colorful, stylized figures and bold outlines are characteristic of Cohen's artistic style, which combined elements of folk art and expressionism. The inscription at the bottom in old Dutch script adds to the historical and cultural context of the piece. Cohen's work often explored themes of community, tradition, and joy, and this print embodies those themes through its lively depiction of a traditional celebration.
