Beschreibung:

LUDWIG HOHLWEIN (1874-1949) WELTAUSSTELLUNG BRÜSSEL. 1910. 24x32 1/2 inches, 61x82 1/2 cm. Hollerbaum & Schmidt, Berlin. Condition B: repaired tears, creases and abrasions in margins and along vertical and horizontal folds; rippling in unevenly-trimmed margins. Mounted on Chartex. When Hohlwein received the official commission to design the poster for Germany's participation in the 1910 Brussels World's Fair, he stuck with a very academic artistic inspiration. The straightforward image of a naked man astride a horse is executed in Hohlwein's singular style with the unexpected additional flourish of the Brussels skyline, laid out across the bottom of the poster. Hohlwein 120, DFP-III 1363, Wember 416.
