Art Déco

Moderne Literatur und Kunst – Die umfangreiche Sammlung zeigt überaus kunstfertig ausgearbeitete Entwürfe für Monogramm-Vignetten, welche durch die Verwendung von Deckweiß und Feder und den somit entstehenden Hell-Dunkel-Kontrast stark plastisch wirken. Der anonyme Urheber bediente sich sowohl des stylistischen Vokabulars des Jugendstils mit seinen eleganten Kurven, langgeschwungenen Linien und vegetabilen Elementen als auch strenger geometrischer Formen wie sie im aufkommenden Art Déco zu finden sind. Auf jeder Albumseite befinden sich zwischen vier und sieben verschiedene Entwürfe in unterschiedlichen Größen, je mit einer handschriftlichen Inventar-Nummer versehen. - Einige wenige Entwürfe minimal atelierspurig und berieben. Insgesamt sehr gut erhalten.

Modern Literature and Art – Art Nouveau - Art Déco - Collection of 120 original designs for artistic monogram vignettes in the style of Art Nouveau and Art Déco. Probably France, around 1920. Pen and opaque white on strong, dark paper. Drawn on 24 album pages, each under a decorative protective sleeve. In contemp. cloth album (rubbed, joints slightly teared). - The extensive collection shows very skilfully worked out designs for monogram vignettes, which appear very vivid by the use of opaque white and pen and the resulting light-dark contrast. The anonymous author used both the stylistic vocabulary of Art Nouveau with its elegant curves, long curved lines and vegetal elements as well as strict geometric forms as found in the emerging Art Déco. Each album page contains between four and seven different designs in various sizes, each with a handwritten inventory number. - A few designs minimally studio-marked and rubbed. Overall very well preserved.
