Vrouwentors 1920

Samuel Jessurun de Mesquita's "Vrouwentors" (1920) is a lithograph that depicts a nude woman, her breasts exposed and a white hat covering her head. The figure's body is rendered in a style reminiscent of Art Nouveau, with flowing lines and a sense of movement. The use of thick, black lines to frame the image contributes to the artwork's sense of drama and mystery. "Vrouwentors" is a striking example of de Mesquita's bold and innovative approach to the female form and is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
