Condition B+ / B: four horizontal repaired tears across image; creases and abrasions along vertical fold and sharp horizontal folds; pencil notation in bottom margin. Mounted on Japan. Alfred Röller was a founding member of the Vienna Secession and one of the group's most prolific poster artists. He contributed to Ver Sacrum, the renowned magazine published by the group, becoming editor after issue 7, and designing posters promoting the magazine and the group's exhibitions. "In the early years of the 20th century, the Secession posters had "lettering ornamented to the limit of legibility. This rigor, this elaboration of the decorative motif were pushed to an extreme by Josef Hoffmann . . . [and] in works by Ferdinand Andri, Mangold and Alfred Roller" (Weill p. 115). The fourteenth Secession exhibition was dedicated to Ludwig von Beethoven and was considered to be one of the group's most popular and successful exhibitions. Although Max Klinger is mentioned on the poster, it was Gustav Klimt's Beethoven Frieze which stole the show. Roller's image of a muse bowing and presenting a glowing orb, infused with patterns and abstract motifs, also appeared as the frontispiece in the catalogue for the exhibition. This is the smaller format. rare. Denscher p. 42, Weill 194, Art Nouveau p. 208, Berman p. 157, German Expressionist Art 25.

    Est: $5,000 - $7,500

    ALFRED RÖLLER (1864-1935) SCHNEEBERG BAHN BEI WIEN. 1904. 37 1/2x24 3/4 inches, 95 1/4x63 cm. Frieder. Sperl, Vienna. Condition B+: repaired tears at edges, some affecting image; minor creases and abrasions in margins and image. Mounted on Chartex. The Schneeberg is a 2,076 meter high mountain in the Alps, situated a mere 40 miles away from Vienna and considered by residents as part of the Viennese Hausberge (local mountains). By the end of the 19th century, it had become a favorite retreat for Vienna's upper classes and, in 1897, a cog railway was opened and began taking visitors to the plateau. Originally designed and printed in 1897 to advertise the journey and promote the hotels available to visit in the region, Röller devises a fabulous, mythical allegory for train travel. The original poster has an architecturally-precise rendering of the "Hotel Schneebergbahn" prominently depicted in the lower right corner and a much smaller, almost indiscernible hotel in the distant mountains. Several years later, the poster was reissued, this time without the hotel in the foreground and a larger image of the Hotel Hochschneeberg in the distant mountains. Alfred Röller was a founding member of the Vienna Secession and one of the group's most prolific poster artists. He contributed to their renowned magazine Ver Sacrum and became Editor after issue seven. Michael Pabst, in Wiener Graphik um 1900 writes, "[Röller's] posters, notably those for the Slevogt exhibition and Schneebergbahn inaugurate modern typography" (p. 339). Von zur Westen wrote that this poster "struck me as far the best poster printed in Vienna in the summer of 1897" (Zeitschrift fur Buchenfreunde 1903/1904, p. 128).

    IX AUSSTELLUNG DER VEREINIGUNG BILDENDER KšNSTLER ™STERREICHS (SECESSION) lithograph in colours, 1901, printed by A.Berger, Wien, on two sheets, condition A- 75 x 25in. (190 x 63cm.) LITERATURE Michael Pabst: Wiener Grafik um 1900, Mnchen, 1984, p.215, (no.226, from the collection of Historisches Museum der Stadt Wien) NOTES The artists of the Vienna Secession developed the Art Nouveau movement in Austria. Alfred Roller's poster was produced in 1901 for the 9th Exhibition of the Union of Creative Artists of Austria (Secession) which ran from 13th January until 28th February 1901. The 9th Exhibition was partly a memorial show for Giovanni Segantini who was regarded by The Secession as a son of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. 'Ver Sacrum' was the journal produced by this group and by 1901 was in its fourth year of production. The journal presented the work of International and Austrian artists of the movement including Koloman Moser, Charles R Mackintosh, Gustav Klimt, Adolphe B”hm, Josef Hoffman and Alfred Roller. Roller was a founder member of the Vienna Secession and designed the posters for the 4th, 9th, 12th, 14th & 16th Exhibitions. Prior to 1901 the poster designs for the Exhibitions were non-uniform and distinctly Art Nouveau in style. The next stage, after 1901, moved towards a geometric-ornamental style with an ornamental image and ornamental lettering, forming a total unit. Roller's poster for the 9th Exhibition represents an early experiment of the transition of the Secessionist poster from Art-Nouveau to the geometric-ornamental style. This is the rare, larger version of the poster.
