About the Item
LOUIS J. RHEAD (1858-1926) THE BOOKMAN / CHRISTMAS NUMBER. Circa 1895.
19x11 1/2 inches, Dodd, Mead & Company, New York. Color Lithograph. Good condition.
No rips or tears or folds. Good color. Framed. Ref: Das Plakat 456
In this splendid image for a literary journal, Rhead depicts a distinguished gentleman, reminiscent of Benjamin Franklin, browsing through a bookstore with his umbrella wedged between his knees.
In the early 1890s, Rhead became a prominent poster artist and was heavily influenced by the work of Swiss artist Eugène Grasset. During the poster craze of the early 1890s, Rhead's poster art appeared regularly in Harper's Bazaar, Harper's Magazine, St. Nicolas, Century Magazine, Ladies Home Journal and Scribner's Magazine. An exhibition of his work was organized by the Salon des Cent in Paris. Three of his posters wer published in Les Maîtres de l'Affiche. In 1895 he won a Gold Medal for Best American Poster Design at the first International Poster Show in Boston.
