‘The Ludendorff donation for war wounded.’ Ludwig Hohlwein transformed the art of posters. As early as 1906, in his first posters, he had parted with the typical crayon drawings to adopt big juxtaposed colour patches that created shades and stark contrasts. The result was at once one of great simplicity and powerful realism. His prolific output helped make him an essential figure in German art and contributed to the image of the determined – even when wounded – soldier. In the Second World War Hohlwein was an active Nazi, and his pictures of strong, iron-clad soldiers continued to serve German propaganda.
