This design for a stained-glass window by Richard Nicolaüs Roland Holst was intended for the Amsterdam City Hall. Dated between 1930 and 1934, it portrays a central figure, likely an historical figure significant to the city, standing within a doorway with other figures surrounding him. The work is displayed at the Rijksmuseum and demonstrates Holst's artistic vision for this monumental public project. The distinct geometric shapes and stylized forms are characteristic of his approach to stained glass, which combined traditional techniques with a modernist sensibility.
