Advertising Wall Art

WALL ART

666 artworks

Commercial illustration used many of the same skills as fine art, drawing and colour theory chief among them, but aimed them at selling a product rather than at gallery display. Posters for travel, drink, tobacco and department stores relied on bold flat colour and lettering designed to be read from a distance, a discipline that shaped early poster art as its own field. Package design and trade cards applied similar methods at a smaller scale. Several artists moved between advertising and painting without much distinction in technique. This grouping is strictly commercial work, distinct from wartime and political persuasion, which sits under a separate topic.
