EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the essence of the 1914 Swiss National Exhibition, showcasing a vibrant and bustling fruit stall. The exhibition, which opened in Bern on May 15th and ran until October 15th, coincided with the outbreak of World War I, adding an air of historical significance to this snapshot in time.
The postcard is part of a triptych created by Burkhard Mangold, a pioneer of Swiss poster art known for his innovative and captivating designs. Mangold's illustration beautifully highlights the abundance and variety of Swiss produce, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the rich colors and textures depicted.
As we gaze upon this image from over a century ago, we are transported back to a time when Switzerland was celebrating its agricultural heritage amidst global turmoil. The meticulous attention to detail in Mangold's work allows us to appreciate not only the beauty of the fruits on display but also the skill and creativity behind their presentation.
This print serves as a reminder of both the cultural richness of Switzerland and the resilience shown by its people during challenging times. It is a testament to the enduring power of art to capture moments in history that continue to resonate with us today.
