Sterrenbeeld boogschutter 1880 - 1920

"Sterrenbeeld boogschutter" (Sagittarius Constellation) is a woodcut by Dutch artist Henri van der Stok, created between 1880 and 1920. This striking black and white print depicts the constellation Sagittarius, featuring a stylized figure of a centaur with a bow and arrow, against a backdrop of stars and a crescent moon. Van der Stok's bold, geometric forms and stark contrasts are characteristic of the Art Nouveau style, popular during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This piece is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam.
