RARE ORIGINAL 1930’s ‘KAMPFZEIT’ PORTRAIT ON WOOD OF ADOLF HITLER
DONE IN CHROMOLITHOGRAPH TECHNIQUE
This hard to find original 220 x 290mm or 8-5/8 x 11-1/2 inch ‘Kampfzeit’ period portrait of Adolf Hitler from around 1930 is done on wood in the chromolithograph technique, where the printing is direct onto a piece of wood and then sealed, probably using a heating process, giving the effect as if the portrait has been painted on wood. The back is plain wood without any surface treatment. The facial expression is amazing and the picture draws you in. A rare early Third Reich artifact
