Decoratief ontwerp 1874 - 1945

"Decoratief ontwerp" is a design drawing by Dutch artist Carel Adolph Lion Cachet, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum. Dated between 1874 and 1945, the drawing depicts a decorative motif. Drawn on gridded paper, the design features a central stem with symmetrical floral patterns extending out on both sides. This piece exemplifies Cachet's artistic style and his interest in ornamental design. The intricate details, meticulously rendered on graph paper, showcase his focus on precision and meticulousness. The drawing would likely have served as a preliminary design for an object like a textile or piece of furniture.
