Kruis 1857 - 1859

"Kruis" is a pencil sketch on paper by Dutch architect Pierre Cuypers, created between 1857 and 1859. The simple composition showcases a cross with a circle at the intersection, representing a design element likely for a church or other architectural project. Cuypers, renowned for his neo-Gothic designs, employed this preliminary sketch as part of his meticulous planning process. The delicate lines and light pencil strokes reflect the precision and detail characteristic of Cuypers' architectural vision.
