OTTO MORACH (1887-1973) DAVOS. 501/2x351/2 inches. Wolfsberg, Zurich. Condition A-: creases and archival tape in margins. Paper. For Davos he creates a strange universe, in which the graceful curves of Switzerland's famous viaducts become elongated, and towering blue walls combine to focus our attention on the distant resort town. The slogan reads "The road to strength and health lies through Davos." Morach's unique, modernist approach to depicting the resort, sharp angles and perspective mixing with the whimsical, provide an entrancing, powerful visual image. Voyage p. 60.
