When Hohlwein received the official commission to design the poster for Germany's participation in the 1910 Brussels World's Fair, he stuck with a very academic artistic inspiration. The straightforward image of a naked man astride a horse is executed in Hohlwein's singular style with the unexpected additional flourish of the Brussels skyline, laid out across the bottom of the poster. Hohlwein 120, DFP-III 1363, Wember 416.
