About the Item
Very beautiful poster that was made by Paul Colin 🇫🇷 (1892-1985), a French painter, designer, costume designer, set designer and poster artist.
Paul Colin is considered one of the most influential and innovative French poster artists of his time.
His style has constantly evolved during his career, first very Art Deco (his album The Black Tumult is a masterpiece.), it quickly becomes very personal and impossible to fit into a category.
It is thanks to his technical and synthetic accuracy in his portraits as well as the evocative power of his posters for great causes that he is still considered today as a master of visual communication and whose work remains very current.

Paul Colin
Paul Colin (French , 1892-1985) was a French artist widely recognized for his imaginatively configured art deco posters depicting many well known theatre performers in Paris in the 1920's and 1930's, such as Josephine Baker and modernist figures and nudes. He also specialized in theatre sets, book designs, and costume design. Influenced by Cubism and jazz, he often employed a collage-like methodology to his work, juxtaposing highly stylized figural compositions against geometrically overlapping objects.He was a student of Valin and Prouvre. He created performance posters that were highly stylized, for studio, arts and dance. He was awarded an inspiring graphic artist and had his own unique style as he embraced symbolism and an abstract style.

1943 Original french propaganda poster from WWII - Working in Nazi Germany
Located in PARIS, FR
Since 1940, and throughout the war, many foreign volunteers chose to work in Germany, whether for ideological reasons or, more often, for wages or even the release of close prisoners. But from March 1942 onwards, the Nazi government launched a vast policy designed to bring about an influx of labor on its soil. Indeed, due to the ever-increasing need for men in the army, the mines, industry and agriculture lacked the manpower to support the war effort.
