HOHLWEIN, Ludwig (1874-1949). Architekt Bernhard Borst / spezialist fur das vornehme Herrschaftshaus. Munich: G. Schuh & Cie, ca. 1911. 46 ? x 34 ?? (sheet); 34 5/8 x 26 ?? (image). Linen backed. Wide margins; replaced losses and repaired tears in margins including restored loss to upper right corner; repaired tears with restoration in image; scattered creases and light discoloration. B-/C+. A rare and attractive poster. This is probably Hohlwein?s only poster advertising a residential architect; Hohlwein himself originally trained as an architect. Here, the pattern of the house?s columns and arched windows is contrasted against a stone wall and greenery, showing dabbles of citrus growth which also reappear on the balcony.
