{"product_id":"bilgeri-ski","title":"Bilgeri-Ski Equipment by Carl Kunst","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreated in 1910, this early ski equipment poster promotes Bilgeri ski gear from Bilgeri Werk in Bregenz, Austria, at a time when alpine skiing was still defining itself as both a sport and a discipline. The skis and poles are presented almost like objects in a showroom, cleanly arranged against a luminous Alpine backdrop that underscores performance, precision, and modernity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe artwork is by Karl Kunst, a Munich based artist and designer active in early twentieth century commercial graphics. Kunst was known for his clarity of form and disciplined compositions, qualities that come through strongly here. Rather than romanticizing the skier, he lets the equipment speak for itself, highlighting construction, proportion, and function. It is a confident, forward looking approach that feels remarkably modern for its time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrinted in Munich by Reinhold \u0026amp; Lang, Lithographische Kunstanstalt, this poster is a rare survivor from the very beginnings of ski advertising. It captures the moment when skiing shifted from utility to sport, and when graphic design began to mirror that evolution. A cornerstone piece for collectors of early winter sports, alpine history, and foundational European poster design. *Please note poster is conservation mounted on linen  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Size\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSize:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20.0\" x 30.0\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Artist\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eArtist:\u003c\/strong\u003e Carl Kunst\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-label=\"Condition\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Very Good, Age-appropriate wear, fading and toning.
