William Schumacher - New Books

New Books

William Schumacher's original lithographic poster, entitled "New Books", was published in 1896 by Lothrop Publishing Company, Boston. It is a fine, original example of the advertising art created by the American artist, William Emile Schumacher. This original lithograph was designed to advertise upcoming new books, the letterpress reads,

  • New Books
  • Money in Politics by Hon. J. K. Upton. The latest, up-to-date and most convincing argument for honest money. By an ex-U. S. Treasurer
  • The Children's Nonsense book, A beautiful book of fun by the best American fun-makers
  • The Young Cascarillero and Colonel Thorndike's Adventures. Two splendid adventure stories for boys
  • The True Story of George Washington by Elbridge S. Brooks. The best children's story of the Father of his Country; picturesque, truthful, American
  • The Boy, Life of Napoleon From the French of Mme. Eugenie FOA. The only story of the boy Napoleon for children
  • Lathorop Publishing Company, Boston.

"New Books" is a prime, original example both of the fine lithographic art created by William Emile Schumacher and of the spirit of the American Art Nouveau age
 
Title: New Books
Artist: Schumacher, William Emile 'William Schumacher' (Boston, 1870 - Kingston, New York, 1931)
Date: 1896
Medium: Original Lithographic Poster with Letterpress
Publisher: Lothrop Publishing Company, Boston
Note: William Emile Schumacher 'William Schumacher': An important painter and graphic artist, William Emile Schumacher studied art in Paris at the Academe Julian. He remained in Paris until 1893 and exhibited his art there at the Salons. Upon his return, Schumacher designed posters for both Boston and New York publishers. Shortly after the turn of the century William Schumacher became intrigued with modern art, particularly the Fauvist concepts of Matisse and Othon Friesz. He exhibited his modern art at the influential 1913 Armory Show in New York. William E. Schumacher then moved to the newly founded art colony at Woodstock and became an important teacher there.
  William Schumacher was a full member of the Woodstock Art Association, Society of Independent Artists and the Byrdcliffe Arts Colony. During his fine career he exhibited his art with such major institutions as the Art Institute of Chicago, the Pennsylvania Academy and the Society of Independent Artists.
  American Art Nouveau: In the final decade of the nineteenth century the Art Nouveau phenomenon hit the United States by storm. European leaders of the movement, such as Grasset, Mucha and Toulouse-Lautrec, contributed original poster designs to American companies. Yet the rapid rise of American artists in the Art Nouveau field, such as Louis Rheade, Will Bradley, Maxfield Parrish, Edward Penfield, William Schumacher and a host of others, quickly gave the United States as great a grouping of Art Nouveau artists as any European nation.
  American Art Nouveau reached its pinnacle during the mid 1890's. Publishers of both periodicals and books, extensively commissioned the talents of these artists. Much to their consternation, however, it soon became obvious that the advertising posters the artists produced for them were in much more demand than the products they advertised. Now, more than a century later, collectors are still avidly seeking original examples from this brief but glorious movement in American art.
Provenance: This original lithographic poster was formerly in the collection of Ned Arden Flood. N. A. Flood is listed as one of the three greatest early collectors of American Art Nouveau posters (see Margolin, p. 20). At one time his extensive collection housed over one thousand examples of American posters from the 1890’s.
