About the Poster: At the turn of the twentieth century, Vienna stood at the heart of a waltzing whirlwind in which artistic and cultural forces acted to disorient a whole generation and set the tone for a new, modern reorientation for all Western society. In fact, some argue that the city and time were influential for most of the fashion and cultural trends that followed in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. (bigthink.com) This poster, by well-known artist Josef Seche, shows us why with its clean lines, elegance, refinement and exceptional provenance.
Poster has been linen-backed, is in very good condition and is ready to be framed.
Provenance: Hans Sachs poster collection, often described as being the most significant poster collection of the 1900s. (The inventory sticker from Dr. Sachs is on the poster, making it a significant document of poster and political history.)
