Drie bloemen 1895 - 1938

"Drie bloemen" (Three Flowers) is a woodcut by Dutch artist Johannes Nicolaas, created between 1895 and 1938. The artwork, measuring 150 mm in height and 98 mm in width, depicts a single large flower and two smaller ones, all rendered in a bold and expressive style. The use of stark black and white contrasts and a simplified form characteristic of woodcut printmaking emphasizes the floral subject's beauty and natural grace. This intimate composition, with its detailed rendering of the blooms and delicate stem, speaks to the artist's keen observation and appreciation for the natural world.
