Bandontwerp voor: Louis Couperus, God en Goden, 1903 before 1903

This is a design for a book cover by renowned Dutch artist Jan Toorop. It was created before 1903 for Louis Couperus's book, *God en Goden* (*God and the Gods*). Toorop is known for his Art Nouveau style, which can be seen in the flowing lines and decorative elements of this design. This design is characterized by its use of black and white lines, geometric shapes and a central figure that is a personification of the book's title. The design features a large inscription in a stylized font and an abstract human figure. The intricate details and the overall aesthetic of the design make it a perfect example of Toorop's mastery of the Art Nouveau style. The cover design can be viewed at the Rijksmuseum.
