Yasha 1975

"Yasha" (1975) by Aat Verhoog is a striking example of the artist’s signature style. The black and white print depicts a woman seated on a chair, with a dog standing at a distance, both rendered in a delicate network of lines. Verhoog's meticulous use of hatching creates a sense of depth and texture, drawing the viewer’s attention to the subtle gradations of light and shadow. The composition is characterized by a sense of isolation and quiet introspection, further emphasized by the minimalist aesthetic. The work is currently held at the Rijksmuseum.
