Onkruid c. 1944 - 1990

"Onkruid" (c. 1944 - 1990) is an etching by Dutch artist Kees Stoop, known for his detailed and intricate linework. This print, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, portrays a dense thicket of weeds, capturing the artist’s fascination with the natural world. Stoop’s meticulous lines and dark tones create a sense of depth and texture, drawing the viewer into the heart of the overgrown vegetation. The small scale of the work, measuring only 103 mm in height and 113 mm in width, further enhances the sense of intimacy and detail.
