NIEDERLANDISCH-INDISCHE KUNSTAUSTELLUNG / KREFELD. 1906.
283/4x361/2 inches.
Condition A-: expertly repaired tears in margins.
A highly decorative image with traditional Indonesian puppets in which the sophisticated, ornamental frame and the text create the sensation of a stage and curtain. As in Thorn-Prikker's other posters for the Krefeld Museum the typography is straightforward, and the warm and sensuous image is created using only three colors. Extremely rare.
