Original Vintage Italian Poster Paper for "Monopol la Falce" Scythe by Hohlwein

More Views

A vibrant poster (1926) by Ludwig Hohlwein (1874-1949), the celebrated German poster designer. This advertisement is for Monopol, the Italian manufacturer of La Falce (the scythe). As the caption tells us this product is the favorite of the farmers ! Hohlwein 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 color and architectural compositions dispels any suggestion that he uses photos as a substitute for creative design.
