Reigen Magazine Cover 1926 – Elegance in Green

Playful vintage illustration for your printing project as a download! This Reigen magazine cover from 1926, masterfully designed by Armand Vallée, exudes the lightness and charm of the Berlin Twenties. Elegant and graceful, the figure moves in a green, almost dreamlike scenery, while small details – such as a striking pink collar on the dog – add a coquettish playfulness to the scene. The illustration captures the sophisticated attitude to life of its time without appearing stiff or serious, and conveys a touch of humor, grace and decorative elegance. It is almost a century old – and that is precisely what makes it so appealing. Note: This motif is available as a download exclusively in the USA.

Printing recommendation

The motif is particularly effective when printed on uncoated paper without gloss. No or very little structure. The paper should be white, but not bright white. A very, very light beige shade of paper also suits this illustration.
