Did You Know?

Heinrich Vogeler was active within an influential avant-garde artists’ colony in Worpswede, located in northeastern Germany, where he built a studio home that he conceived of as a total work of art, featured throughout these prints.

Description

Heinrich Vogeler was instrumental in the development of Jugendstil, or art nouveau, in Germany. This international movement advocated for an integration of the arts and their application to the visual culture of the everyday—including design, household goods, and illustrated books. In Spring features landscapes that loosely evoke the times of day, beginning with an image of the artist encountering a lark in the morning and concluding with the night sky over his home. Vogeler collaborated with the vanguard journal Die Insel and controlled every aspect of the portfolio’s production, including its cover design, font, layout, paper, ink tone, and binding.
