De Bazel, a prominent architect and designer, was deeply involved in the Theosophical Society, and his graphic work often incorporates occult symbolism and geometric precision. The image depicts a figure identified as Athiom of A, presented in a stylised, hieratic posture that recalls ancient Egyptian iconography. The figure stands against a dark, cross-hatched background, holding a staff, while the upper portion of the composition features bold, hand-lettered text in Dutch: 1e TAPEEREL ATHIOM OF A HET MYSTERIE VAN EEN MAGIEËR.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition is defined by a rigid, vertical orientation, typical of the artist's disciplined approach to design. The figure is rendered with clean, deliberate lines, avoiding unnecessary ornamentation in favour of a clear, symbolic narrative. The contrast between the stark white of the figure and the dense, dark background creates a graphic tension that is characteristic of the Symbolist movement. De Bazel's work from this period demonstrates a synthesis of architectural structure and mystical subject matter, resulting in a visual language that is both precise and enigmatic. This print offers a glimpse into the intellectual climate of the Dutch fin-de-siècle, where artists sought to express hidden truths through simplified, archetypal forms. The work remains a compelling example of the intersection between graphic arts and the spiritualist movements that influenced European design at the turn of the century.\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=\"\/products\/voetpad-met-wilg-en-dorpje-aan-de-horizon-richard-nicolaus-roland-holst\" 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;\"\u003eVoetpad met wilg en dorpje aan de horizon - Richard Nicolaüs Roland Holst — Richard Nicolaüs Roland Holst\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/products\/la-petite-toilette-charles-maurin\" 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;\"\u003eLa Petite Toilette - Charles Maurin — Charles Maurin\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Karel Petrus Cornelis de Bazel","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":58443612979535,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58443621105999,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":58443621138767,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58443621171535,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58443621204303,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58443621237071,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58443621269839,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58443621302607,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58443621335375,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":58443621368143,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":58443621400911,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":58443621433679,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Athiom-of-A-Het-Mysterie-van-een-Magie-r-_Poster_CompositorV1_1786234450708.jpg?v=1786415903","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/products\/athiom-of-a-het-mysterie-van-een-magieer-karel-petrus-cornelis-de-bazel","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
