Wolf Erlbruch Post Cards

Human characters in animal guise. For sending via post mail.
Born in 1948 Wolf Erlbruch is a professor of illustration at the University of Wuppertal. He is not only one of the most important, but also one of the most unconventional German book artists. The award-winning author and illustrator of numerous children's books not only received the "Deutscher Jugend-Literaturpreis" (German Youth Literature Prize), but each year also designs a children`s room calendar. For this, he arranges brilliant graphics with human characters in animal guise on every monthly page. For the first time we offer a selection of motives from his last years calendars as post cards (as has been said, right now this is the safest medium of communication, as exceptionally its content is not systematically evaluated). The brilliantly painted animal guises depict human weaknesses and strengths ranging from a cat practicing the art of patience to a sportive pig cannonballing joyfully.
