A map of Ukraine above the peace.

What

Hans Rudi Erdt's 1918 colour lithograph for the Neuester Film release Der Frieden mit der Ukraine, from the Rehse-Archiv at the Library of Congress.

Why

Erdt is counted with Bernhard, Hohlwein, Klinger and Scheurich among the most important German poster artists of 1906 to 1918, and the Library records this sheet at 140 x 95 cm, dated in crayon on the back.

Notice

A stippled map marks Kiew and Odessa, and an orange, yellow and black ring loops behind the black title letters.
