"An exceptionally dapper gentleman, boutonniere, stickpinned cravat, watch
chain, waxed mustache, monocle, pinkie ring, sort of a German version of Hercule
Poirot. He watches with great pleasure and satisfaction as the smoke rises from
his excellent Turkish cigarette. His table and chair are the latest Weiner Werkstätte
style, in fact the whole poster design reflects that type of grid. But then, what
else would you expect from a man whom the poster labels 'The Connoisseur"
(Der Kenner) Rehm was a prolific illustrator and poster artist working in his
native Munich" (Rennert PAI-XXIII, 448)
