De Beginjaren Van De Stijl, 1917-1922 is a scholarly work by art critic Carel Blotkamp and Hans Esser that explores the formative period of the Dutch art movement De Stijl. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the group's development between 1917 and 1922, focusing on key figures such as Piet Mondriaan, Theo van Doesburg, Gerrit Rietveld, and Bart van der Leck. It examines the aesthetic principles, theoretical foundations, and artistic practices that defined the movement during its inception. The publication includes significant visual documentation, featuring approximately 262 illustrations (afbeeldingen) of artworks, architectural designs, and historical documents. Published in Utrecht by Reflex in 1982, this work serves as a primary reference for understanding the transition from early modernism to the distinct geometric abstraction characteristic of De Stijl.
