Biography: Ludwig Hohlwein was born in 1874 in Wiesbaden, Germany. He died in 1949 in Berchtesgarden, Germany. He settled in Munich around 1900. Initially trained as an architect, he didn't start designing posters until 1906. He was the main representative of the Plakatstil ("Poster Style") movement in Germany and Austria, a term which is a take off on the Jugenstil ("Youth Style") fine art movement in the early part of the 20th century. Compared to Art Nouveau, works in the Plakatstil style are more realistic, simpler, less ornate, and more modern.
Hohlwein's fine draughtmanship, painterly style, clarity of light and form, and deft use of color make his poster designs instantly recognizable. His posters were primarily advertisements, but he also created propaganda posters for the German government in World War I, as well as some posters for the Nazis during World War II. Other notable poster designers of German extraction include Adolfo Hohenstein, Lucian Bernhard, Alfred Hierl, and Franz Lenhart.
