About the Item

De Stijl trinket box in wood Fabulous colorful trinket box, created in the northern region of Europe, probably in the Netherlands or Germany. It was crafted with the De Stijl artistic parameters in wood with polychromate paints of different colors. This box has a Mondrianesque and Rietveld reminiscent in the usage of the color composition. Curiously, the three edges of this box Measure exactly 83 mm, which forms a perfect cube. It was obviously designed this way with the golden section in mind. The box is in a great state of preservation, with a beautiful patina and no cracks in the paint. It is definitely a work of art of this movement to be exhibited. Weight: 97.60 Grams. Measurements: 83 mm by 83 mm by 83 mm (3.25 x 3.25 x 3.25 Inches). De Stijl, from the Dutch for "The Style", is also known as Neoplasticism, was a Dutch art movement founded in 1917 in Leiden. De Stijl consisted of artists and architects. In a more narrow sense, the term De Stijl is used to refer to a body of work from 1917 to 1931 founded in the Netherlands. Proponents of De Stijl advocated pure abstraction and universality by a reduction to the essentials of form and colour; they simplified visual compositions to vertical and horizontal, using only black, white and primary colors. De Stijl is also the name of a journal that was published by the Dutch painter, designer, writer, and critic Theo van Doesburg that served to propagate the group's theories. Along with van Doesburg, the group's principal members were the painters Piet Mondrian, Vilmos Huszár, Bart van der Leck, and the architects Gerrit Rietveld, Robert van 't Hoff, and J. J. P. Oud. The artistic philosophy that formed a basis for the group's work is known as Neoplasticism - the new plastic art (or Nieuwe Beelding in Dutch). According to Theo van Doesburg in the introduction of the magazine De Stijl 1917 no.1, the "De Stijl"-movement was a reaction to the "Modern Baroque" of the Amsterdam School movement (Dutch Expressionist architecture) with the magazine Wendingen (1918–1931). Condition: The overall condition of this box is excellent. Beside the little normal wear, there is no damage to the wood. The paint is in pristine sharp colors. This piece has been carefully inspected to guarantee the condition and authenticity. INVENTORY REF: D061123TNGH/.1121.
