Ontwerp voor bijlage pensioenbrief Pensioenfonds der NV Stoomvaartmaatschappij Nederland 1874 - 1945

This design by Carel Adolph Lion Cachet, dating from between 1874 and 1945, is a preliminary sketch for the envelope of a pension letter from the Dutch Steamship Company Pension Fund. The drawing depicts a ship docked at a pier with figures working nearby, all contained within a decorative circular frame. The image, housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to the artistic style of the late 19th and early 20th centuries, showcasing a detailed yet minimalist approach. This design, likely intended to convey a sense of security and reliability, highlights the role of art in corporate branding and visual communication.
