BONA MARGARINE
Porcelain sign / Enamel sign, stenciled and lithographed, DEN 1929, 58 x 118 cm, Johs. Thejil, København, based on a design by Sven Brasch (Danish poster artist, 1886-1970), who immortalized Hansel & Gretel from the Grimm brothers' fairy tale of the same name in Bauhaus style. The sign is undisputedly one of the top 5 Danish enamel advertisements, to date I have only seen restored examples of it, so the joy was correspondingly great when this masterpiece was consigned - despite its size, it lies absolutely flat, the surface shines fresh from burning and is scratch-free, small enamel errors in the red lithography give the depiction additional charm - it is no coincidence that the sign adorns the cover of this highlight-rich auction day - it is the sugar-sweet cherry on our cake, so to speak
