This artwork, "Staal handbedrukte trijp met dessin 'Arenden'" (Steel hand-printed fabric with a design of 'Eagles'), is a textile design by Dutch artist Chris Lebeau, dating from around 1920-1925. The design features a repeating pattern of stylized eagles, rendered in shades of green on a black background. Lebeau was a prominent figure in the Dutch Arts and Crafts movement and explored a wide range of artistic mediums, including textiles, furniture, and graphic design.
