At the turn of the century, Vienna was the European epicenter of innovation in the arts. In 1903 the Wiener Werkstatte ("Vienna Workshops") was founded - an idealistic offspring of art nouveau that, in resistance to increasing mass production and industrialization, called for integration of the fine and applied arts, the union of form and function in design, and treatment of everyday objects with refined craftsmanship and aesthetic care.
This poster was designed by Josef Maria Auchtentaller, a member of the so-called Viennese succession movement. It exemplifies the best of Art Nouveau: its sinuous lines and flowery style, the elegant grace of the women, and the picturesque setting prove that Auchentaller had few equals.
This poster would have been posted with a second sheet at the bottom (with type) indicating the dates and program of events at the exhibition.
Josef Maria Auchentaller (Austrian 1865-1949)
