Poster designed by Ludvig Hohlwein
Caption
Poster designed by Ludvig Hohlwein, 1926, colour lithograph. Ludwig Hohlwein (27 July 1874 in Wiesbaden – 15 September 1949 in Berchtesgaden) was a German poster artist. He was trained and practiced as an architect until 1906, when he switched to poster design. Hohlwein's adaptations of photographic images was based on a deep and intuitive understanding of graphical principles. His creative use of colour and architectural compositions dispels any suggestion that he uses photos as a substitute for creative design.
