Allerlei 1861 - 1929

"Allerlei" is a series of six woodcuts by the Monogrammist CL. Created between 1861 and 1929, this artwork is a collection of scenes depicting various everyday moments with accompanying Dutch verses. The scenes are often framed by text, making it a hybrid of graphic art and literature, reflecting the artist's interest in storytelling through visual narrative. The intricate details and expressive lines in each woodcut invite the viewer to contemplate the emotions and narratives conveyed in each scene, making "Allerlei" a compelling example of 19th-century printmaking and social commentary.
