German Mid-Century Vintage Poster ‘Hansen’ by Henry Ehlers, 1949

This is a boldly colored and exquisitely crafted German Mid-Century Modern period advertising poster for Hansen clothing. A white box that is partially open shows a three dimensional white colored suit with a green tie, holding a few red flowers and a white cane, sitting on a bold green background. This is a stunning example of German graphic design from the mid-20th century.

This advertising poster was created by Henry Ehlers, a prolific German designer and printed by Carl Gerber, Müchen 5: 1949.
