Hedgehog
Artist: Jan Mankes
Circa: 1916

Jan Mankes, one of the Netherlands' most introspective modernist artists, was celebrated for his subtle woodcuts and ethereal animal studies. In this 1916 rendering of a hedgehog, Mankes achieves quiet elegance with controlled lines and negative space, turning a simple creature into a study in meditative form. His restrained visual language—often likened to symbolist and spiritualist aesthetics—bridges traditional woodcut techniques with modernist minimalism.
