Ontwerp voor een schoorsteenmantel c. 1928

This is a preliminary sketch for a fireplace mantel by Carel Adolph Lion Cachet from 1928. It shows a detailed drawing of the mantelpiece and a simplified sketch of the legs that will support it. The drawing, likely done in pencil on paper, demonstrates the artist's design process for a piece of furniture. This sketch, now in the Rijksmuseum, provides a glimpse into the creative process of a prominent Dutch architect and designer.
