Art of the Draw: Advertising Posters
from the McCormick-International Harvester Collection
PRINTING TECHNOLOGY POSTER
Photo Finish
s more photographic sources and techniques were introduced, they slowly changed the visual quality of advertising posters. A single photographic image dominates this poster. Though still graphically striking, this poster lacks the complex coloring, crayon-like texture, and gestural quality that characterized the best color lithographs of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
