In many of his finest posters, Gawthorn employed his signature, stylized graphic ability to depict the privileged classes engaging in their exclusive and elegant pastimes. His Art Deco-inspired illustrations were largely executed using flat colors in a manner reminiscent of Ludwig Hohlwein and Fred Taylor. Furness vol. 4, p. 6.
