Plant 1891 - 1941

"Plant" is a black and white ink drawing on paper by Dutch artist Leo Gestel (1881-1941). Created between 1891 and 1941, the artwork features a simplified, almost geometric representation of a plant with a thick stem and a series of overlapping, organically shaped leaves. Gestel's work often explored themes of nature and simplicity, and "Plant" exemplifies his minimalist style and keen observation of the natural world. It is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam.
