Lot description
Emil Cardinaux 1877-1936 Palace Hotel / St. Moritz. 1920. Condition B+: minor losses at edges; restored losses at top right corner and bottom right edge; repaired tears in margins and lower text; creases and abrasions in margins and image; some colors faded. One of two posters Cardinaux designed for the famous resort hotel; this one shows lounging winter guests around a skating rink, while the other, a summer scene, depicts golfers. In both, employing casual grace and compelling composition, Cardinaux depicts tableaux in his simple, bold style. This poster captures a specific attitude, incorporating mood, style and fashion to reflect the lifestyle of the hotel's clientele. It is interesting to note the vainglorious manner in which none of the main subjects are paying attention to the winter sport happening around them.
