EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage poster invites viewers to explore the wonders of the underwater world at the Zoo Aquarium in Dusseldorf, Germany. Designed by the renowned graphic artist W D Zimmermann in the 1950s, the poster showcases a large, expressive blue fish eye surrounded by a swirl of vibrant yellow, drawing the viewer's gaze into the depths of the sea. The text announces the "new seawater show," which is open every day, inviting visitors to experience the aquatic life up close. The dark background adds a sense of mystery and intrigue, while the bold typography ensures that the message is clear and attention-grabbing. This poster is a testament to the power of graphic design to evoke curiosity and excitement, transporting us to another world beneath the waves." "The Zoo Aquarium in Dusseldorf was a popular attraction in post-war Germany, offering visitors a chance to escape the daily grind and immerse themselves in the beauty and wonder of the aquatic realm. With its innovative seawater show, the aquarium showcased a diverse range of marine life, from colorful tropical fish to sharks and rays. This poster, designed by the talented W D Zimmermann, perfectly encapsulates the allure of the underwater world and the excitement of discovery that awaited visitors to the Zoo Aquarium in Dusseldorf." "The poster is a beautiful example of mid-century graphic design, with its bold typography, expressive use of color, and evocative imagery. It is a reminder of a bygone era when a simple poster could inspire a sense of wonder and adventure, and transport us to another world. Today, it remains a collectible item for graphic design enthusiasts and aquarium lovers alike, a testament to the enduring appeal of the underwater world and the power of design to bring it to life.
