This is an authentic, vintage (NOT a modern reprint) circa 1939 full color photogravure print from an image by the internationally renown German naturist photographer Kurt Reichert. Finephoto is pleased to have acquired a rare collection of full color photogravure plates from 1939 which represent the very first color outdoor nude studies to be produced in pre WWII Germany. During the 1930's color photography was in its infancy and due to the labor intensive process and cost, was seldom utilized - except for special projects. Kurt Reichert, known for a strong sense of aesthetics, tended to use physically fit "naturists" in his images including athletes, dancers and gymnasts. The Nazi regime both encouraged and promoted the idea of outdoor health, fitness and vitality along with the unashamed display of the naked body. In 1930's Germany, beautiful outdoor naturist images depicting men, women and children, basking in the sunshine, playing and exercising in "the great outdoors", were promoted as a national symbol of fitness, beauty and healthy family living. Reichert, along with Gerhard Riebicke and some other select German photographers/photographic studios (see our other Ebay store listings) received government approval in producing these outdoor nude studies. Beautiful in its color palette, the uniquely rich pastel hues of this vintage print are a result of early (1930's) color process and films - in this case Agfa Corp. materials which Reichert liked to use for his color work. Photographically and culturally, this early color piece has historical significance on several levels. Whether you collect photogravure prints, vintage photography, or are simply looking for extraordinary home or business decor, this engaging photogravure print will mat, frame and display beautifully! Note: vintage color photogravures are difficult to scan accurately - our scan above does not do justice to the actual print which is much smoother with fine color graduations which our scanners simply cannot convey.
