EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting postcard is a captivating image from Raphael Kirchner's Woman in the Sun series, dated back to the early 1900s. The photograph features a stunning woman, her gaze fixed on the radiant Arum Lilies before her. The sun casts golden rays upon her, illuminating her in a way that accentuates her beauty and style. Raphael Kirchner (1876-1917) was an Austrian artist renowned for his portrait paintings and illustrations. He is best known for his contributions to Art Nouveau and early pin-up art, particularly in picture postcard format. Kirchner's work was heavily influenced by Japanese art, as evidenced in this postcard by the delicate, flowing lines and the use of gold rays to represent the sun. The Woman in the Sun series showcases Kirchner's artistic prowess and his ability to capture the essence of feminine beauty. The series is a testament to the artistic design and innovation of the early 20th century, a time when picture postcards were a popular means of communication and expression. This beautiful postcard is a historical artifact, a window into the past that offers a glimpse into the artistic sensibilities of the early 1900s. It is a reminder of the enduring power of art to capture the imagination and inspire wonder.
