"Sven Henriksen is a relatively unknown but utterly brilliant poster artist who had a simple and very effective, German-inspired style. He was the only one of the cartoonists in the Danish poster art's golden age, exclusively specialized in poster production, and he was an experienced manufacturer of very beautiful and eye-catching posters" (danskplakatkunst.dk).
