"While the poster flourished in France, Germany was still ignorant
of it's elementary rules; advertisements were only dreary enlargements
of art-school productions, resolutely historical, in the purest style
of Bavarian renaissance…The first poster worthy of the name did
not appear until1896 for an exposition in Dresden: Die Alte Stadt
by Otto Fischer. For the first time the design is graphic, the colours
vivid, the lettering skilfully distributed. This vision of a woman
in regional costume in the foreground, with the old town in the background,
broke completely with the usual allegories" (Weill
