LOUIS OPPENHEIM (1879- ?) KAFFEE HAG. 35x231/2 inches. Condition B+: restored losses in top margin; creases in image. Berlin was the leading European city in advertising art in first years of the 20th century. Great artists like Lucian Bernhardt, Julius Gipkens, Hans Rudi Erdt and Julius Klinger were setting an artistic standard that was being followed by the myriad of other artists living in the city. Oppenheim, a prolific poster artist, here follows closely in the footsteps of the newly-born German graphic style, using flat colors, geometric patterns and clean and legible typography. DFP-III 2459.
