Description from the seller
Poster by Jan Roëde (1914-2007)
Pulchri Studio Exhibition of Dutch Art of Today
Dimensions: Poster 57 x 41.5 cm, framed (behind glass) 77 x 57.5 cm
The Hague, April 25 - May 10, 1942.
Patron: the Reich Commissioner, Reich Minister, Dr. Seyss-Inquart.
Creator: Jan Roeder commissioned by Pulchri Studio The Hague, co-author: Seyss Inquart
In 1942, Pulchri Studio lost its independence. Pulchri Studio was still required to register, and Willy Sluiter, the chairman of Pulchri, was forced by the German occupation (with Seyss-Inquart as Reich Minister) to remain in office, along with a few supporters. Many members subsequently resigned their memberships from Pulchri. Due to the collaboration with the German occupier, Queen Wilhelmina ended her patronage and her active membership of Pulchri Studio in 1946. It would take fifty years until, in 1996, her granddaughter Queen Beatrix was once again willing to assume the patronage.
This poster thus provides an exclusive insight into the extent of influence the German occupation had on the art world in the Netherlands, particularly at Pulchri Studio.
The poster is shipped framed, carefully packed, and registered.
