ALEX NYGAARD (1877-1953) FLYVEUGEN. Pre 1914. 35 1/8x25 1/8 inches. N. C. Rom. Condition B+: repaired tear in right margin, affecting image; vertical fold. Mounted on board. Advertising a week of flying exhibitions in Denmark, Nygaard depicts two planes gracefully leaving white trails behind them as they soar through the sky. That sky, as with many aviation images from this era, has been rendered in yellow for a stronger graphic impact. Beneath the elegant image and the sophisticated hand-drawn typography for the poster's title, specific details of the event have been added in an unfortunately artless manner.
