Compositie
This abstract composition is one of the earliest prints by the Groningen printer Hendrik Werkman. For his druksels (‘printsels’), as he called them, he used typesetting material from his workshop and cut-out templates. By stamping these in different colours and combinations, he created works with a highly personal and unique character. During the Second World War, Werkman used his printed matter as a form of spiritual resistance against the occupying forces, paying for it with his life.
