This illustration was granted the Swiss Poster Award in 1950 Basel Art Museum poster for the exhibition of a group of artists from Basel called "Kreis 48" (circle 48). Armin Hofmann is a Swiss sculptor, stage and graphic designer. His design techniques played a crucial role in the evolution of the Swiss Style. Most of his work lies mainly on the fundamental elements of graphic form; point, shape and line. This fact, renders his posters implacable and timeless. Hofmann’s book, Graphic Design Manual Principles and Practice, has set the ground for many other graphic artists and still functions as an artistic guide
