Richter was a Hungarian artist and a prominent graphic designer with a legacy of strong, Art Deco images. He was also an architect and interior designer, and all three of his artistic skills come to the forefront on this poster for the opening of a new advertising company in Budapest. Richter presents a stylized Mercury pointing to the company's striking storefront, perhaps designed by the artist as well.

Crouse p. 104.
