De Bazel was a member of the Theosophical Society, and his graphic work often incorporates mystical, occult, and geometric motifs that move away from naturalism toward a more symbolic visual language.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition features a central, stern-faced figure holding two axes, flanked by two ethereal, elongated female forms. These figures raise their arms in a gesture of blessing or invocation above a central, hooded entity. The symmetry of the arrangement, combined with the stark contrast between the black ink and the paper, creates a ritualistic atmosphere. The lines are precise and controlled, characteristic of De Bazel's architectural training, which prioritised order and structural clarity even within his more imaginative, symbolic subjects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDe Bazel was a significant figure in the Dutch decorative arts, known for his ability to synthesise diverse cultural influences into a cohesive, modern style. This print demonstrates his mastery of the woodcut-style aesthetic, which was popular among Symbolist artists of the period. The work avoids unnecessary detail, focusing instead on the silhouette and the symbolic weight of the figures. It is a clear example of the turn-of-the-century interest in the spiritual and the mythological, presented through a disciplined, graphic lens. The print serves as an exploration of power, protection, and the unseen forces that De Bazel often sought to represent in his drawings and designs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/de\/products\/and-his-name-that-sat-on-him-was-death-odilon-redon\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eAnd His Name That Sat on Him Was Death - Odilon Redon — Odilon Redon\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/de\/products\/madonna-liebendes-weib-edvard-munch\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eMadonna (Liebendes Weib) - Edvard Munch — Edvard Munch\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Karel Petrus Cornelis de Bazel","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58725929058639,"sku":null,"price":37.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58726024020303,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58726024053071,"sku":null,"price":55.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58726024085839,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58726024118607,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Small Square (30x30 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58726024151375,"sku":null,"price":59.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58726024184143,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58726024216911,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Medium Square (40x40 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58726024249679,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58726024282447,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58726024315215,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ Large Square (50x50 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58726024347983,"sku":null,"price":99.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Drie-figuren-bij-een-bewapende-man-met-vier-armen_Poster_CompositorV1_1788962353133.jpg?v=1788963035","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/de\/products\/drie-figuren-bij-een-bewapende-man-met-vier-armen-karel-petrus-cornelis-de-bazel","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
