This woodcut design by Walter van Diedenhoven, created in 1912, is the cover for the annual report of the "Afdeeling voortgezet & hooger bouwkunst-onderricht" of the Genootschap Architectura et Amicitia. It features two figures, one in each half of the composition, both enclosed in geometric floral motifs. One figure is kneeling, while the other is standing, perhaps representing two distinct stages of development. The title and text beneath the image indicate this is a report about advanced and higher architectural education, suggesting a deeper meaning associated with the figures. This artwork showcases the artist's talent for intricate detail and stylized forms characteristic of Art Nouveau.
