Die Truhe (1935)

(The Chest)

 

Illustrated by Sulamith Wülfing

 

 

Die Truhe contains a suite of 12 illustrations inspired by fairytales and traditional

songs. It was published for initial sale during Easter 1935 and included a message

from Otto Schulze (Wülfing's husband).

 

Again, as with other 1st Editions published by Sulamith Wülfing Verlag, Die Truhe

is thought to have been printed in small numbers.

 

Wülfing's illustrations for Die Truhe are stunning and represent what some consider

to be her best monotone work.

Our Greeting Cards and Fine Art Posters

 

 

Greeting Card sample showing a Sulamith Wulfing illustration from ''Die Truhe'' (1935)

We have prepared sets of 12 Greeting Cards displaying each of Wülfing's monotone images for Die Truhe and on the left, we show an example of how these Greeting Cards appear.

 

 

 

Code: SW DT MS(12)
 Price: US$60.00

 

 

When presented on Greeting Cards, these images are prepared as tipped-on

plates - in hommage to the hand-crafted approach typical of prestige illustrated

publications produced in the early decades of the 20th Century. Each card is

hand-finished and the images are presented on White card stock with an

accompanying envelope. The rear of each card carries information about

Sulamith Wülfing, this wonderful suite and the profiled illustration - we have

left the interior of the cards blank so that you may write your own personal

message.

 

Should you wish to order a reproduction print of one or more of these

images, we have provided some options below. Each of our Fine Art Posters

is prepared with archival quality papers and inks - and also accompanied by

information about Sulamith Wülfing, this suite and the profiled illustration.

 

To purchase, simply click on the appropriate "Add to Cart" button and you

will be taken through to our Shopping Cart secured through PayPal. Multiple

purchases will be consolidated by that feature and shipping and handling costs

to any destination in the world are accommodated by our flat-rate fee of

US$20 for every US$200 worth of purchases.
