Ontwerpen voor ringen 1913

This technical drawing by Dutch architect Mathieu Lauweriks, titled "Ontwerpen voor ringen" (Designs for rings), dates back to 1913. The artwork displays detailed sketches of a ring from various angles. The meticulous rendering on a gridded paper reflects the precision and craftsmanship typical of Lauweriks’s designs, which were often characterized by geometric forms and a focus on functionality. The drawing, likely a preliminary study for a jewelry piece, exemplifies the artist’s interest in applying his architectural principles to smaller, decorative objects.
