Decoratief ontwerp 1874 - 1945

"Decoratief ontwerp" is a decorative design created by Carel Adolph Lion Cachet, a Dutch artist known for his work in the Art Deco style. This particular design, a gouache on paper, features a central black shape framed by a border of stylized, flowing forms in shades of yellow, black, and brown. The piece, housed in the Rijksmuseum, demonstrates Cachet's talent for abstract composition and the use of bold, graphic elements characteristic of Art Deco. This design is a prime example of Cachet's work, a fascinating blend of geometric and organic forms.
