ARTIST: MUNETSUGU SATOMI (1900-1995) SIZE: 24 3/8 x 39 in./62 x 99 cm PRINTER: La Novateur, Paris DESCRIPTION: Satomi arrived from his native Osaka to study art in Paris at an early age—in fact, he entered the École des Beaux-Arts before his eighteenth birthday, which is normally the minimum age required for entry to the prestigious school. He became very active in graphic design of all kinds during the 1930s, producing posters that were not only effective, but even quite startling by the standards of the period. Here, in a design for the PLM railroad, Satomi shows his mastery of graphic expression. The bold red letters juxtapose the diagonal thrust of the train as it rushes out of the darkness towards the bull’s eye of the sun. (Art Deco; Travel; Railway)

Graphique DESCRIPTION: Satomi could be called—quite unpatronizingly, indeed in high praise—the Japanese Cassandre; both excelled at and delighted in distilling a subject down to its essence, blending its pictorial representation and the lettering into near-pure graphic design. Here that approach concisely sums up the golfoholic's world view, in which every hole is seen as a putting challenge, and life itself consists only of the expansive fairway. (Modern; Sports)
