Hugo Laubi, Casimir raucht Capitol
Est: $800 - $1,000
Hugo Laubi Casimir raucht Capitol 1940 50.25 h x 35.5 w in (128 x 90 cm) Casimir stands for everyman, an average, simple soul; the implication is that ordinary people derive a great deal of satisfaction from smoking the advertised product. A native of Zurich, Laubi studied extensively in Paris and London, but came back home in 1918 to accept the post of art director at the printing firm of the Brothers Fretz. Since he also did illustrations for periodicals, many of his posters come close to cartoon style, of which this is a conspicuous, rarely seen example. Wolfsberg, Zurich Literature: PAI-XXV, 377 This work will ship from Lambertville, New Jersey.

Est: $2,000 - $3,000
HUGO LAUBI (1888-1959) ST. MORITZ / JUBILAUMS RENNWOCHE. 1925. 50x35 inches, 127x63½ cm. Gebr. Fretz, Zurich. Condition B+: repaired tears at edges, some into image; creases and abrasions in margins and image; small loss in upper left margin. Mounted on Japan. Laubi became Art Director at the Fretz Brothers printing house in 1918, for whom he created numerous posters advertising PKZ and various Swiss travel destinations. He designed this poster in 1924 as a generic image promoting St. Moritz, with a depiction of one of the horse races on the frozen lake which took place annually in the town from the early 20th century until the outbreak of WWII. In at least two subsequent years, the image was reused with overprinting advertising that year's horse races. In 1939, the image of the horses alone, without any background, was also used to promote the race. Laubi's passion for horses in the rest of his life inspired his continued artistic depictions of them, and horses became a recurring motif in his career. Art of Skiing p. 94, Swiss Winter Sports 51 (var).
