EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and whimsical New Year's card, titled "Cheers 1911 (Prosit)" was created by Hans Kalmsteiner in 1910. The color lithograph print showcases Kalmsteiner's exceptional graphic design skills and his ability to capture the spirit of celebration during this festive time of year. In the center of the image, a jovial woman is depicted raising her glass in a toast, surrounded by an array of delicious food. The table is adorned with a platter filled with succulent pork, symbolizing abundance and good fortune for the coming year. A playful hog, representing prosperity and luck, stands beside her. Kalmsteiner's use of bold colors adds to the liveliness of the scene; vibrant reds and greens dominate the composition while intricate details bring depth to each element. The lithography technique employed enhances these hues further, creating a visually striking piece that captures attention. As we admire this charming artwork from over a century ago at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, it serves as a reminder that celebrations have always been an integral part of our human experience. This New Year's card not only reflects on past traditions but also reminds us to raise our glasses high as we welcome new beginnings with joy and optimism.
