    JOHN HASSALL (Walmer, 1868 - London, 1948). "Aladdin." Lithograph poster on paper. Signed in plate.

    Est: €1,500 - €2,000

    JOHN HASSALL (Walmer, 1868 - London, 1948). "Aladdin." Lithograph poster on paper. Signed in plate. Measurements: 74.5 x 61 cm; 80 x 57 cm (frame). John Hassall was an English painter, illustrator, woodcutter and poster artist. He was educated at Worthing, Newton Abbot College and Neuenheim College, Heidelberg. At the suggestion of a friend, he studied art at the Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp and the Académie Julien in Paris. During this time he was influenced by the famous poster artist Alphonse Mucha. His first drawings appeared in 1890 in The Daily Telegraph. In 1895 he began working as an advertising artist for David Allen & Sons, a job he held for fifty years and included such well-known projects as the poster Skegness Is Done (1908). He made use of flat colors bounded by thick lines in black, his poster style was well suited to children's books, and he produced many volumes of nursery rhymes and fairy tales. In 1901 Hassall was elected a member of the Royal Institute of Watercolor Painters and the Royal Society of Miniature Painters. He also belonged to several social clubs, including the Langham (until 1898), and most notably, the London Sketch Club (of which he was president from 1903 to 1904). In 1900 Hassall opened his own "School of New Art and the School of Poster Design" in Kensington, where he counted Bert Thomas, Bruce Bairnsfather, HM Bateman and Harry Rountree among his pupils. The school was closed by the outbreak of the First World War. In the post-war period, he ran a correspondence school. He was the father of poet Christopher Hassall and engraver Joan Hassall. He was also the grandfather of actress Imogen Hassall. Arguably John Hassall's most famous creation was the 1908 Jolly Fisherman and is considered one of the most famous vacation advertisements of all time in England. In the National Art Museum of Catalonia you can see one of his works, a poster he made for his friend Lluís Plandiura, on the occasion of the inauguration of a Poster Exhibition at the Círculo Artístico.

Summarised on the back cover: "Ye Berlyn Tapestrie" is founded on the famous Bayeux Tapestry which recorded incidents of the Invasion of England by William The Conqueror, A.D. 1066, additional pencil inscription on back cover. Pioneering British illustrator John Hassall responded to the horrors of the First World War with his trademark black humour in this panorama of "Ye Berlyn Tapestrie", a parody of the Bayeux Tapestry which satirises German agression. Thirty illustrated panels, in the style of the Bayeux Tapestry, depicts Kaiser Wilhem II's invasion of Luxembourg and Belgium in comic caricature.

It provided "forasteros" -foreign visitors- information of touristic and cultural interest in Barcelona. The promotors wanted to contribute to the modernisation and cultural and economic enrichment of the city and the country through encouraging tourism." The poster we are auctioning was published, as we can see, in a context in which tourism was beginning to be promoted in the Catalan capital, "as a strategy for transforming Barcelona and, by extension, Catalonia, which has been hit hard since 1898, when, with the loss of the colonies, the large overseas market for its industry also disappeared", as Carles Geli comments in his article for El País "Barcelona, ‘atracción de forasteros’" (Barcelona, ​​​​'attracting foreigners'). At that time, the city of Barcelona was "difficult to get to [and] the prices of the few hotels that existed were expensive." Barcelona was far behind the other large European cities such as Paris, London or Berlin, which in 1908 had 900,000, 600,000 and 500,000 visitors respectively, according to Geli’s article, which concludes that, for these reasons, the dominant political party of the time in Catalonia, the "Lliga Regionalista" used tourism "as an arsenal for its regenerationist project, due to the desire for Europeanisation, to jump from being a provincial city [...] to a metropolitan city, capable of combining its nature as an industrial hub with that of a tourist hub". The Biblioteca Nacional de Catalunya (National Library of Catalonia), has an example of this poster in its collection. Bibliographic references: - Arxiu Històric de la Ciutat de Barcelona.

    Mar. 14, 2021

    The Shop Girl. ca. 1897.

    Est: $800 - $1,000

    ARTIST: JOHN HASSALL (1868-1948) SIZE: 19 3/4 x 28 1/4 in./50 x 71.8 cm PRINTER: David Allen & Sons, London DESCRIPTION: Written by H.J.W. Dam, The Shop Girl was one of the new style of Irish musical comedies which burst to popularity at the end of the 19th century. Each of these types of musicals focused on a single girl and her misadventures toward success, society, and love. They were a natural progression out of the era of burlesque and into one of a linear story line and coherent plot, ultimately allowing for the more complex theatrical musicals of the 20th century to be born.
