Oost-Indische kers by Julie de Graag
Oost-Indische kers (Nasturtium) shows Julie de Graag working at the intersection of close botanical study and pure graphic design. The round, shield-like leaves are arranged with deliberate asymmetry, their overlapping forms creating a layered rhythm across the picture plane. Engraved on end-grain wood, the lines achieve a fineness rarely possible in the medium — stems, veins, and petal edges rendered with the control of an illustrator and the boldness of a printmaker. The work sits firmly within the Dutch Art Nouveau tradition while prefiguring modernist flat design.
Produced as an archival fine art print in our Berlin studio, the intricate engraved linework and tonal contrasts of this botanical illustration come through with full sharpness. Every leaf vein and edge is exactly preserved — a fine art print built for botanical art collectors.
