Baumberger was one the most prolific and versatile Swiss graphic designers. His posters switched nimbly between the near-photographic representation of objects in the Neue Sachlichkeit style, minimal typographic creations, abstract and realistic landscapes and concise Art Deco designs. Lake Thun is in Switzerland's Bernese Oberland. This is the English version. Baumberger 198.2, Paradis p. 206 (var).
