This small graphic design depicting a delicate female figure playing the violin was made for one of the most significant ex libris collectors, Aladár Schilling. In his decorative art, Rozsnyay preferred artistic female busts surrounded by currently popular ornaments - stylized floral or strict geometrical motifs.
