About the Item
Original Holland, so easy to reach by KLM vintage travel poster. Archivally linen-backed in very fine condition ready to frame. Colors are bright and vibrant. Printed in Holland by Kuhn and Zoon, Rotterdam.
Joop Geesink was a Dutch animator, filmmaker, and puppeteer known for his pioneering work in stop-motion animation and puppetry. In the mid-20th century, he created numerous advertisements, films, and promotional materials, including posters.
One of his notable works is the KLM Holland poster featuring a puppet playing the accordion while sitting on a dock with a basket of fish on the side.. This poster was likely created as part of a promotional campaign for KLM (Royal Dutch Airlines) to showcase Dutch culture and traditions.
The imagery of the puppet playing the accordion and the fishing dock along with a basket of fish could be interpreted as symbols of Dutch folklore and maritime heritage. The accordion is a traditional musical instrument associated with folk music and entertainment, while the rooster and fish could symbolize aspects of Dutch rural life and seafaring traditions.
Geesink's distinctive style often incorporated whimsical and charming characters, making his posters visually appealing and memorable. This particular poster likely aimed to evoke a sense of Dutch pride and cultural identity, while also promoting KLM and its connection to the Netherlands.
This is an Original Lithograph Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction.
