Staal met bedrukte zijde, dessin Diana 1911 - 1917

"Staal met bedrukte zijde, dessin Diana" is a textile sample created by the Wiener Werkstätte, an influential design collective founded in Vienna in 1903. This particular design, featuring a geometric pattern of diagonal black lines with a gradient effect on a white background, dates back to between 1911 and 1917. The design, known as "Diana," embodies the Wiener Werkstätte's commitment to geometric abstraction and modern design principles, making it a prime example of the "Gesamtkunstwerk" (total work of art) aesthetic that the group championed. The sample is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
